Description & Condition
Description & Condition
Sadowsky is a New York high street brand whose clientele includes top musicians such as Marcus Miller and Will Lee.
Until now, the Metro line was manufactured in Japan, but as Warwick took over the distribution of Sadowsky products, the manufacturing location was changed to the Warwick factory in Germany.
Originally, the Metroline models made in Japan were highly regarded, and some were concerned about a decline in quality, but as far as the actual product is concerned, there is no need to worry about an overreaction.
The neck feels a little thinner than the one made in Japan, and there are also differences in the roundness of the body joint.
Also, the old Metroline had a solid body.
However, the new Metroline here uses a chambered body like the NYC.
This makes the weight light enough to reach the low 3 kg range and adds a moderately back-supporting sense of support to the playability.
The superior electronics produce a powerful sound even at low string heights.
Both playability and sound quality are balanced at a high level.
The PU is different from both the old Metroline and NYC, but it feels neat and beautifully designed.
It doesn't have a peppy feel and seems easy to handle.
