Offered in this listing is a 2020/21 production SADOWSKY MetroExpress P/J Hybrid bass in excellent condition.

The bass has apparently seen very little use, judging by its overall excellent appearance and the presence of the protective clear film still untouched on pick-guard and control panel chrome plate. There are hardly any noticeable signs of use, save for some cloudy looking finish discoloration at the very bottom and back of the body that we tried to show in the detail pictures posted. Other that that it is a borderline mint condition instrument.

Comes in its original protective gig bag with a set of pin matching strap locks as well as tools for neck and bridge adjustment along with the original hang tag showing a final inspection date of May 2021. Make sure to check out the informative video linked to this listing featuring a 2023 sibling of such specimen, an identical instrument to the one offered here, save for a roasted maple neck.



Roger Sadowsky’s goal has always been to improve on bass design by making some very unique and important enhancements. Through the use of his proprietary special electronics, light-weight tuners and selected tone wood, Roger has raised this MetroExpress 21-Fret Hybrid P/J 4-String Bass to a whole other level! Features include a light-weight solid Okoume body finished in Solid Olympic White High Polish with a tortoise pickguard, a maple neck and a morado fingerboard, this is one fantastic looking and playing bass that we are sure you will love to play! Our MetroExpress basses are the easiest way for you to access that famous Sadowsky tone: Never harsh or shrill sounding, with strong, powerful but never muddy bass, with present, but not too aggressive mids, and a sweet, airy treble.
