Custom Sadowsky MetroLine MV4 Bass - 2017 - Natural Ash/Maple Fretboard

Corner Music is prod to be one  a very few dealers carrying both Sadowsky MetroLine and Sadowsky NYC basses. Please contact us for additional details.

The Sadowsky MetroLine is the answer for bassists who want Sadowsky sound, feel and precision—without the long wait typically associated with Roger Sadowsky’s outstanding custom-made instruments. MetroLines basses also save you almost half of the cost of a New York Sadowsky.

This natural ash RV-4 four string features traditional Sadowsky appointments, including solid ash body (not chambered), thin nitro finish, Sadowsky hum-canceling J bass pickups, Sadowsky preamp with Vintage Control, and custom hardware. The maple neck features a nitro matte-finish and maple fingerboard for a feel that is amazingly smooth and comfortable.

Made by Roger Sadowsky’s personally trained protégé, Yoshi Kikuchi, in Tokyo, the small shop is standardizing certain options (while the NY shop will continue to make custom instruments). Bottomline: Expect the same craftsmanship and quality as a NY Sadowsky at a more affordable price.
