Sound Pure's Take

"Your drummer will love you!" - Eddie 

Sadowsky is known for being impeccable in their attention to both build and tonal detail, and the Metro Line series basses are no exception. Designed for players with more vintage sensibilities or players that need more modern versatility, the MV5 will deliver all the low end punch that you can ask with clarity and precision (or should I say 'jazz'?). 

You can't go wrong with a classic sunburst finish to round out an already phenomenal instrument! Call Soundpure today for more details!

From Sadowsky Basses & Guitars

Sadowsky Metro Basses

Our Metro Line represents all the basic models of Sadowsky NYC basses but are made by our staff at Sadowsky Tokyo.

The Metro Line offers most of the same features as their NYC siblings including the same pickups, preamp and bridge. The quality of the Metro Line is as high as our NYC instruments.

Vintage Series

Our Vintage Series Metro features a slightly undersized J body with pickup placement in '60s location. Rosewood boards are combined with alder bodies, and maple boards will have ash bodies.
