Description: Sadowsky MetroExpress Hybrid P/J 4-String Tobacco Burst w/ bag Sadowsky MetroExpress Hybrid P/J 4-String Tobacco Burst w/ bag For the bassist who values versatility above all, it’s tough to top a world-class P/J like Sadowsky’s MetroExpress 21-fret hybrid PJ Bass. This bass’ combination of a Sadowsky passive/shielded single-coil J and a Sadowsky passive P split-coil allow you to swap from bright and funky fingerstyle to driving, rock-ready midrange growl in an instant — and that’s before you factor in the active onboard 2-band EQ’s enhanced tone-sculpting possibilities. Moreover, the MetroExpress 21-fret hybrid PJ marries its wide-ranging sonic flexibility with Sadowsky’s immaculate playability: a roasted maple neck in a Sadowsky Standard profile, 12-inch-radius pau ferro fingerboard, Tedur Just-A-Nut III, and natural oil back finish will make even the longest of setlists easy on your fretting hand’s fingers. Lastly, the MetroExpress 21-fret hybrid PJ Bass’ rock-solid Sadowsky Hardware, including a Quick Release bridge and 20:1 ratio Sadowsky tuners, top it all off with road-tested reliability. This supremely versatile Sadowsky provides a one-two punch of classic passive P/J flexibility and ultra-precise modern electronics. First, this bass’ combination of a Sadowsky Passive Shielded Single-coil J and a Sadowsky Passive P split-coil pickup allows you to cover a seriously sweeping range of sonic ground. Iconic J-style grit and growl, mix-ready split-coil midrange might, and everything else in between — this is a bass that truly defies genre or stylistic categorization. These passive pickups are paired with a Sadowsky active onboard 2-band preamp system that pushes it all over the edge, granting you ultra-articulate active tones and greatly enhanced tone-shaping possibilities. From the MetroExpress line to the German-made MetroLine series to Roger Sadowsky’s handmade creations, Sadowsky instruments are renowned worldwide for their remarkably high-performance playability. This P/J hybrid is no exception, sporting an exceptionally stable roasted maple neck formed into a fast-playing Sadowsky Standard neck profile that’s won over scores of bassists. Next, the pau ferro fingerboard’s 21 nickel-silver frets are shaped into a 12-inch radius to give you an even and familiar feel no matter where you are on the fingerboard. It’s all finished with a natural oil finish that’s smooth on your palm as you slide around the back of the neck. From the tuners to the bridge, just about every piece of hardware found on this bass is custom-made by Sadowsky for optimal performance and reliability. The large open-back Sadowsky tuners that inhabit the headstock feature a 20:1 ratio, allowing you to make even the most minute adjustments a cinch. On the opposite end, it’s hard not to be impressed by the rugged Sadowsky Quick Release bridge. Not only does the bridge live up to its title with rapid string changes, but its robust build also greatly enhances how each string transfers its energy to the body, resulting in superlative sustain. And while it may not be a Sadowsky design, this instrument’s Tedur Just-A-Nut III is a godsend for players picky about their nut action, as it allows for free adjustment of your nut height with the simple twist of a screw!
