Sadowsky MetroExpress 21-Fret Vintage M Bass, Roasted Maple Fingerboard, 5-String - Solid Candy Apple Orange Metallic High Polish

Roger Sadowsky’s goal has always been to improve on bass design by making some very unique and important enhancements. Through the use of his proprietary special electronics, light-weight tuners and selected tone wood, Roger has raised this MetroExpress 21-Fret Vintage M Bass 5-String to a whole other level! Features of this bass include a light-weight solid Okoume body finished in Solid Candy Apple Orange Metallic High Polish with a transparent pickguard, a roasted maple neck and a roasted maple fingerboard, this is one fantastic looking and playing bass that we are sure you will love to play! Our MetroExpress basses are the easiest way for you to access that famous Sadowsky tone: Never harsh or shrill sounding, with strong, powerful but never muddy bass, with present, but not too aggressive mids, and a sweet, airy treble.
