Description & Condition
Description & Condition
Sadowsky is a high-end New York brand whose clientele includes top-tier musicians such as Marcus Miller and Will Lee.
While the Metroline Express series was previously manufactured in Japan, production has since moved to a factory in China following Warwick’s assumption of distribution for Sadowsky products.
The series maintains high quality while keeping prices competitive, making it a truly unique offering in its price range.
When the Metroline Express series was first released, it did not feature the Sadowsky logo, but this has since been successfully updated.
This is the newly introduced modern model.
The body is made of Okoume, while the neck and fingerboard are crafted from Roasted Maple.
The design is well-thought-out in terms of body balance and sound, resulting in a very refined and well-balanced instrument.
The neck has a satin finish, providing a smooth feel.
It features a soapbar-style pickup and the familiar 2-band boost EQ preamp.
The preamp circuit board is virtually identical to that found in top-of-the-line models priced around 1 million yen, which I believe is a significant advantage.
The controls include volume, balance, bass, and treble.
A push-pull switch allows you to bypass the active circuit and play in passive mode.
The powerful, crisp sound is slightly more flashy than recent NYC models.
Some people might actually prefer this one based on sound alone.
It doesn’t seem easy to find a product in the same price range that delivers such high quality.
Highly recommended.
This is an official manufacturer outlet item.
