Sadowsky is a high-end New York brand whose customers include top-notch musicians such as Marcus Miller and Will Lee.
This model is from the era when it was manufactured in Japan, and is now out of print.
It is completely different from the current Metroline Express.
Okada International, which has been handling top brands such as Sadowsky NYC and Suhr for many years, is in charge of the basic design, and its high quality is highly praised.
The body is Alder and the fingerboard is Pau Ferro, making it a classic wood composition.
Equipped with a pickup that has a hum-cancelling function using a split coil, such as those used by DiMarzio.
A Sadowsky preamplifier is used here, so in that sense it's no different from NYC.
Now that I think about it, the specs are pretty impressive at this price.
The hyper-smooth playing feel is definitely something special, and it's amazing that you can achieve this quality in this price range.
Coupled with excellent electronics, it is worthy of being called the ultimate modern jazz bass.
Approximately 70% of the frets remain.
The truss rod works well.
The neck is in good condition.
The condition of the body and paint surface is that there are some dents and scratches here and there.
The electrical system is in good condition.
No obvious modification points were found.

When setting up, I use D'addario EXL, which is highly trusted by professional musicians.
Characterized by a powerful attack and rich overtones, it is a performance worthy of being called a standard.
These are high-quality strings that bring out the maximum performance and character of your instrument, so please enjoy them as well.
GIB's craftsmen have adjusted it to make it easier to play and then deliver it to you.
