The Sadowsky MetroExpress Hybrid P/J Bass 5-String combines classic bass design with Roger Sadowsky’s renowned performance upgrades, delivering exceptional tone, playability, and versatility in a professional-grade instrument. Finished in a stunning Candy Apple Orange Metallic High Polish with a tortoise pickguard, this bass offers eye-catching aesthetics alongside the legendary Sadowsky sound.
Built with a lightweight solid Okoume body and an ergonomic undersized J-style body shape, the MetroExpress Hybrid P/J provides outstanding comfort and balance for long playing sessions. The roasted maple neck and roasted maple fingerboard contribute enhanced stability, resonance, and smooth playability, while the comfortable C-shaped neck profile makes navigating all 21 frets effortless.
The versatile pickup configuration features a passive Sadowsky P-style neck pickup paired with a passive hum-cancelling J-style bridge pickup positioned in the classic 60s location. This combination delivers everything from deep, punchy Precision-style tones to articulate Jazz Bass clarity and modern tonal flexibility. Sadowsky’s active 2-band electronics provide powerful bass and treble boost controls, allowing players to shape their sound while maintaining natural note definition and dynamics.
A convenient push/pull function on the bass control bypasses the preamp for passive operation, giving players instant access to both active and passive tonal options. Premium hardware appointments including lightweight open-gear tuners, the Sadowsky Just-A-Nut III, quick-release bridge, S-Security Locks, and an included PortaBag ensure reliable performance both on stage and in the studio.
Whether you’re performing rock, funk, gospel, jazz, pop, fusion, or worship music, the MetroExpress Hybrid P/J Bass delivers the unmistakable Sadowsky voice—powerful lows, articulate mids, and sweet highs with exceptional clarity and balance.
