Basgitaar uit het hogere segment die Roger Sadowsky's geprezen voorversterker en bouwstandaarden tegen een toegankelijke prijs brengt, de industriestandaard onder sessiespelers.
The MetroLine series, now meticulously crafted in Germany, successfully bridges the gap between boutique NYC customs and mass-produced instruments. The build quality is impeccable, benefiting from high-precision manufacturing; the fretwork is some of the cleanest in this price bracket, and the overall balance remains impressively comfortable for long sessions.
Sonically, it delivers the quintessential 'Sadowsky Sound'"a polished, hi-fi take on the classic J-bass. The boost-only preamp is the star of the show, providing a muscular low-end bloom and a crystalline top end that slices through a dense mix without ever sounding brittle. The inclusion of the Vintage Tone Control (VTC) is vital, allowing you to roll off the modern sheen for more traditional, mid-forward textures when the gig demands it.
Playability is effortless thanks to the fast, satin-finished neck and the adjustable nut system, which allows for surgical action height. While the price point is a significant investment, the MetroLine provides nearly the entire NYC Custom experience at a more attainable figure. It is a formidable tool for session players and touring professionals who need a 'record-ready' tone right out of the jack. However, purists seeking a gritty, passive lo-fi character might find its inherent clarity a bit too 'polite' for certain raw genres.
