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 looking at the actual product, it seems that there is no need to worry about an overreaction.
The neck feels a little thinner than the Japanese-made one, and there are differences in the roundness of the body joint.
The excellent electronics output a powerful sound even at low string heights.
Playability is also problem-free and the overall potential of the product seems to be high.
Generally, models with a PJ pickup layout can have balance problems when mixed.
Perhaps with this in mind, this model is equipped with a dedicated bridge PU that differs from the JB model.
As typified by this point, this model is not an instant creation, but seems to have been thoughtfully designed.
It is a new product and we would like you to try it out first.
You can also check it out on GIB's Youtube channel if you like.
