Sadowsky has been around since the 80s serving professional musicians starting from NYC then soon all over the world. They’re famous for their stability and that ‘guarantee’ great sound night after night for most demanding players. When something doesn’t sounded right at a gig, it’s possibly something else other than the bass itself. In 2003 they’ve started the Metro line offering the least customizable and more affordable instruments that are manufactured in Japan. And in 2019, they’ve partnered with a factory producing even more affordable MetroExpiress basses and ended the Metro line.
