Discover the Sadowsky MetroExpress 21-Fret Vintage J/J Bass, an exceptional instrument that combines light weight, comfort, and remarkable tone—perfect for both beginners and professional musicians.

Overview

Manufactured in China under Warwick’s supervision, the SADOWSKY MetroExpress 21-Fret Vintage J/J Bass, Roasted Maple Fingerboard, 4-String (SMX21VJ4 J7M OKU FR) is a sophisticated reinterpretation of an iconic American solid-body electric bass. Featuring high-quality components and meticulous craftsmanship, it promises rich tones worthy of much more expensive models.

Meticulous craftsmanship for exceptional tone

The Sadowski SMX21VJ’s construction combines a Nyatoh body, a bolt-on maple neck, and a maple fingerboard. This combination achieves a perfect balance between thickness, bite, dynamics, and tonal clarity. Tonal characteristics include:

• Warm and precise bass
• Generous mids without excess
• Crystal-clear highs

The wood-toasting process adds visual elegance while enhancing the instrument’s stability, sustain, clarity, and resonance. Additionally, it protects the bass from temperature fluctuations, humidity, and mold.

High-Quality Materials for Optimal Performance

Used for decades in the maritime and aerospace industries, Okoume—native to West Africa—is an ideal wood for electric guitars. Lightweight and low-density, it is comparable to high-quality mahogany but stands out for its more pronounced high frequencies and extended dynamic range, thereby enhancing the instrument’s clarity and definition.
