The Sadowsky MasterBuilt 24-Fret Vintage J/J Bass is perfect for any player looking for a modern bass with that famous Sadowsky tone: Never harsh or shrill sounding, with strong, powerful but never muddy bass, with present, but not too aggressive mids, and a sweet and airy treble range. This 6-string bass has a chambered American Red Alder body with an Ocean Blue Transparent Satin finish. The body shape is sleek and undersized with deeper cutaways for better playability and a full two octave note range. The neck is made from Roasted American Maple and has a Morado (Pau Ferro) fretboard. This bass is fitted with two passive Sadowsky Soapbar pickups, both in a modern position, and has active electronics that offer true bypass, Vintage Tone Control, as well as treble and bass boost. Hardware includes Sadowsky light open gear tuners and a Sadowsky Quick String Release bridge. Each Sadowsky MasterBuilt 24-Fret Vintage J/J Bass is made exclusively in our workshop in Germany and weighs no more than 9.2 lbs (4.17 kg). A good choice for bass players who are seaching for a light, modern looking bass with that special modern Sadowsky sound.
