Pre-Owned 2023 Sadowsky Metroline Vintage Jazz Bass Nirvana Black With Gig Bag

Sadowsky basses are considered one of the finest boutique basses ever made, and we have one, a MetroLine 21-Fret Vintage J/J in Nirvana Black. This bass is an exemplary model of why Roger Sadowsky’s basses are so highly revered.  It features expert craftmanship and high-quality components to give you an professional-grade instrument that will perform for a lifetime. 

This model is a powerhouse that features a sleek, undersized J-style bass body, crafted from chambered ash, with a blissful Nirvana Black satin finish that shows the wood grain nicely . You get a lightweight premium maple neck that's sleek and easy to play, with a 12" radius  It's quite comfortable and you'll be able to go all night - the overall weight is a mere 7.9 lbs.

The heart of this bass lies in its sophisticated electronics, specifically engineered to deliver the "Sadowsky Sound"—a tonal profile defined by powerful, tight lows and a "sweet and airy" top end that never turns harsh. The Sadowsky J-Style pickups work with an active preamp system that includes a dedicated Vintage Tone Control (VTC) and independent treble/bass boosts. Whether you need a traditional passive thump or a modern, hi-fi scooped slap tone, its true-bypass circuitry provides pure tones for any style of music in any playing situation. 

Built exclusively in Germany to exacting standards, this MetroLine model is outfitted with high-performance hardware including Sadowsky light open-gear tuners and a Quick String Release bridge. This is the ultimate player's bass with the punch and presence of a classic 4-string but with modern improvements.

This bass is in excellent condition and comes with the original padded gig bag.  Setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop, it's ready to roll.  For anyone on the hunt for a killer Sadowsky bass at a great price, this is quite the find.
