Overview

Machined in Germany at the Warwick workshops, the SADOWSKY MetroLine 22-Fret Will Lee Artist Line Bass (SML22WL4 10 ALD FR) is the signature model of one of today’s most sought-after bassists. It reimagines an iconic American solid-body electric bass, combining timeless vintage appeal with modern versatility.

High-Quality Craftsmanship for Rich and Versatile Tones

This high-end electric bass stands out for its meticulous craftsmanship, combining an American alder body, a maple neck, and a morado fingerboard. This traditional construction provides a consistent, dense, and responsive acoustic foundation, with the following tonal characteristics:

• Thick, punchy lows
• Prominent mids
• Dynamic and clear highs

Morado, or Pau Ferro, used for the fingerboard, is a dense wood sourced from Brazilian and Bolivian forests, producing tones that blend the characteristics of rosewood and maple. Its smooth feel is reminiscent of ebony, offering an optimized playing experience.

High-performance pickups and an innovative preamp for enhanced expressiveness

The Sadowsky MetroLine 22-Fret Will Lee is equipped with passive Sadowsky J-Style single-coil pickups, delivering warm and expressive tones. In addition, its comprehensive yet intuitive Sadowsky Custom Will Lee active preamp includes:

• A switchable mid-boost circuit with options at 500 Hz or 800 Hz
• A VTC (Vintage Tone Control) filter that allows you to adjust the high frequencies for an authentic vintage sound
• A push/pull VTC knob to disable the circuit, delivering an even more organic sound

This bass thus offers exceptional flexibility and adapts perfectly to a wide variety of musical styles, making it an ideal choice for discerning musicians.
