Sadowsky MetroExpress 5-String P/J Bass - Morado Ocean Blue
The Sadowsky MetroExpress 21-Fret Hybrid P/J Bass brings the legendary Sadowsky tone and playability to a more accessible platform, pairing a passive P-style neck pickup with a hum-cancelling J-style bridge pickup in the 60s position for exceptional tonal versatility. Built with a lightweight okoume body, roasted maple neck, and morado fingerboard, this 5-string delivers a punchy, warm foundation with articulate highs across all 21 frets. The onboard active Sadowsky 2-band EQ lets you shape your sound on the fly, while a push/pull bypass on the bass knob gives instant access to pure passive tone when you want it. Designed to meet the demands of working musicians, the MetroExpress offers the craftsmanship and refined electronics that Sadowsky is known for, making it an outstanding choice for players seeking professional-grade P/J versatility in a 5-string format.
