Product Info

This Sadowsky is a seriously well-made instrument – the fretless feel is fantastic, and the hybrid pickup setup really opens up a lot of sonic possibilities. It’s a premium-priced bass, but the quality and versatility make it ideal for gigging musicians and serious students wanting a refined, expressive tone.
