The MetroLine 24-4 Vintage: Lightweight Solid Body and Superior Hardware

Apart from its solid body, this MetroLine model doesn't differ all that much from Sadowsky's illustrious Custom Shop USA NYC basses. The wood has even been specially selected to keep the weight as low as possible, while high-quality hardware like the Just-A-Nut III nut, lightweight open tuners and quick-string-release bridge have been selected to ensure superb tuning stability, perfect intonation and smooth re-strings.

Classic Passive and Fresh Active J-Style Sounds

The MetroLine 24-Fret Vintage J/J Bass is equipped with two J-style pickups that not only cover a spectrum of familiar passive sounds, but give you a host of active sounds to play with that can be unlocked via the push-pull tone pot. Both single-coils are mounted in a modern position and have been designed to do away with any and all hum.
