Sadowsky MetroExpress 4-String J/J Bass - Maple Metallic Ocean Blue
SKU: SMX21VJ4 J2M OKU FRThe Sadowsky MetroExpress 21-Fret Vintage J/J Bass delivers the renowned Sadowsky tone and playability in a more accessible package. Built with a lightweight okoume body and a fast roasted maple neck and fingerboard, this 4-string bass pairs two Sadowsky passive hum-cancelling J-style pickups with an active Sadowsky 2-band preamp featuring a convenient push/pull bypass for seamless switching between active and passive modes.
