The result is a tone that players worldwide now recognise instantly: powerful, defined lows without a hint of mud, mids that cut through a mix without aggression, and a treble range that's sweet and airy rather than harsh or shrill. That signature Sadowsky voice is fully present in the 24-Fret MetroLine series, crafted exclusively in Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis 4-string model is built for the modern player who demands both performance and practicality. Deep cutaways push playability up the neck, 24 frets open up the upper register, and at just 3.8 kg it's a genuine lightweight stage instrument. The sleek, undersized J-Style swamp ash body wears a striking Solid Black Satin finish with black pickguard — understated and purposeful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e4-string, right-handed | 34\" scale | bolt-on maple neck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eAmerican Swamp Ash body | maple fingerboard | 12\" radius\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e24 nickel silver frets | Sadowsky Just-A-Nut III | 1.5\" (38.5mm) nut width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePassive hum-cancelling Sadowsky J-Style pickups (neck + bridge, modern position)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eActive Sadowsky 2-band preamp (bass \u0026amp; treble boost) with Vintage Tone Control (VTC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePush\/pull VTC knob for true preamp bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eVolume \/ Balance \/ VTC \/ stacked Treble \u0026amp; Bass controls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSadowsky lightweight tuners with open gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eSadowsky quick-release bridge | S-Security strap locks | chrome hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eStrung with Sadowsky Blue Label strings (.045–.105)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eIncludes hex key tools, individual Certificate of Authenticity, and Sadowsky Portabag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eManufactured in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SADOWSKY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49523953926383,"sku":"SD-MLMVJ4-AS-BK","price":3999.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0254\/4071\/files\/0H3A3425_5636dbfd-a7f4-4407-9ddf-97c977d2ddc6.jpg?v=1780012950","url":"https:\/\/www.basscentre.com.au\/products\/sadowsky-metro-line-hybrid-p-j-bass-swamp-ash","provider":"Bass Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
