Product information

General

A J-style vibe coupled with a five-string range, the German-built Sadowsky Metroline Series 24-5 bears boutique grade specs yet comes at a more off-the-rack price. Boasting the same level of build quality as the sublime models that come out of New York City, the only difference between this connoisseur-grade bass and its American cousins is the fully-solid instead of hollowed-out body.

The MetroLine 21-5 Vintage Bass: The Lightweight Heavyweight

While the body is totally solid, the specially selected wood keeps the weight of this bass as low as humanly possible and here, has been combined with considered contouring and the tight and snug feel of a C-profile neck and 12 inch fretboard radius, providing fluid playability all the way up to the 21st fret. This superb model comes complete with a Portabag, a COA, a set of S-Security strap-locks, and all the necessary adjustment keys.

Far-Reaching & Solid Sound

The acoustic sound of this bass is especially solid and as soon as it's plugged in, its flexible, far-reaching power really becomes clear. Mounted with a pair of advanced J-style hum-cancelling pickups, you're greeted by all of that classic, high-definition single-coil tone but without any of the associated hum, while the '60s-style position of the bridge pickup provides a natural thumb-rest. Pop the push-pull function of the vintage tone control pot to engage active mode and tweak the tone using the stacked EQ controls to double the fun. All of the hardware, meanwhile, from the light open-gear machines heads, to the quick-string-release bridge and Just-A-Nut III nut have been provided by Sadowsky, laying down astonishingly stable tuning and intonation and completing a neat and high-end five-string package.
