This MetroExpress is a seriously well-built lefty 5-string, offering a fantastic blend of vintage and modern tones. The hybrid pickup setup and active EQ give you a ton of versatility for funk, rock, and even some mellow jazz. It's a great choice for gigging musicians looking for a premium instrument without the ultra-high-end price tag.
