SADOWSKY METROLINE 21-FRET VINTAGE M/J BASS, SWAMP ASH BODY, 5-STRING - OCEAN BLUE TRANSPARENT SATIN

Sadowsky MetroLine 21-Fret Vintage M/J Bass
Roger Sadowsky's goal was always to further improve an already very successful bass design by making a number of detailed improvements. Along with the electronics, which he developed by himself, he succeeded to raise the well-known M/J bass sound to a new level, so today you can speak of a typical Sadowsky tone: Never harsh or shrill sounding, with strong, powerful but never muddy bass, with present, but not too aggressive mids, and a sweet and airy treble range. This modern bass sound can also be found in the Sadowsky MetroLine 21-Fret Vintage M/J line of basses.
