What is a B-stock product?

A product becomes B-stock when it can no longer be sold as new. It can simply be a product that has been returned by a customer or it may have packaging that is damaged or missing. It’s possible that the product itself may show slight signs of use or damage too. All B-stock products are fully checked to ensure that they work properly and you can find details of why the product is a B-stock in the information above.

Product information

General

The Sadowsky MetroExpress Vintage M/J Bass 5-string bass guitar is a lightweight instrument, but of high calibre. It has everything a professional bass player needs. Its Sadowsky Light open-gear tuners offer a smooth and precise tuning experience, and the quick-string-release bridge ensures proper intonation and makes string changes a breeze. The lightweight Okoume wood body is finished with a sleek high-gloss lacquer and has a transparent pickguard giving it a modern, energetic look. The Roasted Maple used for both the neck and fingerboard has undergone thermal treatment. This gives it its nice warm colour, but more importantly, this makes it very stable and has a nice resonance.

MetroExpress: versatile equipped

The 5-string Sadowsky MetroExpress Vintage M/J has a noise-cancelling stacked coil Sadowsky J-style pickup in the middle position and at the bridge a Sadowsky Quad Coil humbucker. Both elements have their own 3-way switch that allows selection between parallel-series or single-coil switching. It also features an active 'boost-only' EQ with which you can use the bass and treble rotary knobs to give your sound even more power. However, this can also be switched off so you play completely passive. The balance control ensures seamless mixing between the two elements. All this puts a huge range of sounds at your disposal.
