Sadowsky's new standard series "MetroLine" is manufactured at Warwick's state-of-the-art facilities. Roger Sadowsky's goal was to further improve his already highly successful bass design by implementing many detailed improvements. Together with his self-developed active circuit, he succeeded in taking the bass sound to a new level. All the characteristics of this bass sound – the typical Sadowsky tone, with its clear, articulate lows, modern yet not overly aggressive midrange, and clear highs – are carried over to the MetroLine series, manufactured exclusively in Germany. Extremely lightweight, it's perfect for bassists looking for a lightweight bass with modern bass sound and easy handling for the stage. This brand-new "MJ" model features a hum-canceling J pickup and a "J-MM" pickup layout with MM-style pickups, resulting in a more powerful attack and a fuller sound than the J/J. Each pickup can be switched between parallel, series, or tapped with a mini switch, and combined with the 2-band EQ and tone control, it allows for a wide range of sound shaping. It also features original parts, including ultra-lightweight tuners and a bridge that provides excellent response. This guitar offers world-class quality in both sound and playability. After receiving worldwide acclaim for its domestically produced models, the transition to models manufactured at the Warwick factory in Germany has become a hot topic. While retaining most of the basic concepts and specifications, the new models utilize Warwick's strength of "vast wood stock" and hand-selected materials, as well as chambered bodies not available in Japanese-made models, resulting in lightweight bodies of approximately 4kg or less for all models. Experience this new Sadowsky challenge for yourself. *The image is a sample.
