The Sadowsky Masterbuilt 21-Fret Standard M/J Bass 2022 Limited Edition represents the pinnacle of Sadowsky's craft, with only 40 MasterBuilt examples produced worldwide. This 5-string instrument pairs a striking snakewood top and matching snakewood fingerboard with a lightweight torrified swamp ash body, delivering both visual drama and resonant, balanced tone. The roasted flamed maple neck provides exceptional stability and a silky playing feel, while the snakewood headstock veneer completes the cohesive aesthetic.
At the heart of this bass is Sadowsky's versatile M/J pickup configuration — a passive hum-cancelling J-style pickup in the neck position and a passive MM-style humbucker at the bridge — routed through the legendary Sadowsky 2-band active preamp with Vintage Tone Control. This combination delivers everything from warm, classic Jazz Bass tones to aggressive, modern punch with effortless blending between the two voices. The Natural Transparent High Polish finish showcases the exotic grain of the snakewood top in stunning detail, giving each instrument a one-of-a-kind appearance befitting its limited-edition status.
