Sadowsky MetroExp21 Verdine White 4 OWH

The Verdine White Artist Line bass blends classic P/J musical fundamentals with modern features. The two hum-free Sadowsky pickups – P-style at the neck, J-style at the bridge – can serve up everything from warm, hypnotic grooves or assertive, growling lines. A balance control allows bassists to seamlessly blend the response of the pickups, while the active 2-band EQ shapes both bass and treble with precision. The push-pull switch bypasses the preamp for a purely passive sound, ideal for those vintage Funk jams. With its 34" scale length (864 mm), 12" fingerboard radius, 21 neatly finished nickel-silver frets, 19 mm string spacing at the bridge, and Quick String Release bridge, Verdine White's signature bass is a solid yet irresistibly playable instrument for tight basslines, clean intonation, and speedy string changes.

For over 40 years, professional musicians have associated the name Sadowsky with high-end bass guitars, electric guitars, and archtop Jazz guitars. In the late 1970s, Roger Sadowsky opened his own workshop, where he started out repairing and modifying instruments from other brands. In the '80s, he began to develop bass guitars that represented his own unique vision: Soon, the name Sadowsky had a worldwide reputation for quality, thanks in part to prominent clients like Marcus Miller and Will Lee. Roger's legendary inventions include the on-board preamp for bass guitars, which helped create such extraordinary demand for Sadowsky instruments that he eventually made the decision to start producing the Metro line of basses in Japan. In 2019, the German bass specialist Warwick assumed manufacturing responsibilities for the Metro series, ensuring the name Sadowsky will continue to be synonymous with high-quality instruments for years to come.
