Description
The Stockist is the Official Authorized Distributor of Sadowsky Guitars in India, ensuring every instrument is 100% genuine, factory-original, and backed by reliable after-sales support.
Combining the punch of a Precision-style pickup with the articulation and growl of a Jazz-style bridge pickup, the Sadowsky MetroExpress Hybrid P/J 5-String Bass delivers exceptional versatility, professional playability, and the renowned Sadowsky sound at an accessible price point. Finished in a stunning Ocean Blue Metallic High Polish finish, this bass stands out visually while providing the performance demanded by modern bassists.
Built with a lightweight solid Okoume body and a roasted maple bolt-on neck, the MetroExpress Hybrid P/J offers excellent balance, resonance, and comfort. The roasted maple fingerboard enhances clarity and response, while the 34″ scale length and comfortable C-shaped neck profile provide a familiar playing experience for both stage and studio applications.
The pickup configuration combines a passive P-style neck pickup with a passive hum-cancelling J-style bridge pickup positioned in the classic 60s location. Together with Sadowsky’s active 2-way electronics, featuring bass and treble boost controls and a convenient push/pull active-passive bypass, this bass delivers everything from vintage warmth to modern punch and clarity.
Additional premium features include lightweight Sadowsky open-gear tuners, the proprietary Just-A-Nut III system, Sadowsky quick-release bridge, S-Security Locks, and an included Sadowsky PortaBag for safe transport.
Whether you’re performing live, recording in the studio, or practicing at home, the MetroExpress Hybrid P/J 5-String delivers the unmistakable Sadowsky tone—powerful lows, articulate mids, and sweet, airy highs.
