The Sadowsky MetroLine 5 Candy Red Vintage PJ is a high-quality electric bass guitar from Sadowsky's MetroLine series, known for its premium craftsmanship, versatility, and tone. Here's a breakdown of key features and highlights:

Key Features:

  • Body: The body is made from lightweight alder, finished in a striking Candy Red color with a classic vintage aesthetic.
  • Neck: It features a bolt-on maple neck, providing stability and resonance, paired with a Morado (Pau Ferro) fingerboard for smooth playability.
  • Pickups: The PJ configuration offers a combination of precision (P) and jazz (J) style pickups. This gives the instrument a wide tonal range—from warm, deep lows (from the P pickup) to articulate, snappy highs (from the J pickup).
  • Electronics: Sadowsky's renowned preamp system is onboard, which includes active/passive switching. The 2-band EQ (boost only) allows you to shape your tone further by adjusting the bass and treble frequencies.
  • Bridge: Sadowsky’s custom bridge offers excellent sustain and adjustability for precise intonation.
  • Tuning Machines: Lightweight Sadowsky tuners for stability and ease of use.
  • Scale Length: 34" scale length for a balanced feel across all strings, typical for most modern 5-string basses.
  • Number of Strings: 5-strings (B-G), perfect for bassists needing extended low-range notes.
  • Weight: MetroLine basses are known for being lightweight, providing comfort during long performances.

Tone & Versatility:

The PJ pickup configuration combined with Sadowsky's preamp system makes this bass incredibly versatile. It's well-suited for various styles such as rock, funk, jazz, and modern pop, providing punchy lows and articulate highs. The Candy Red finish adds a striking visual appeal to the instrument, making it stand out on stage.
