Sadowsky Masterbuilt Custom Shop 21 Fret Standard J Bass, Cherry Burst, Flame Maple, Active/Passive
Sadowsky MasterBuilt instruments are, according to Roger himself, “as close as it gets” to the high-end instruments he builds in his workshop in New York City. That is because he was personally involved in the whole development process of all the designs, from the selection of tonewood combinations to the finishes and premium features. Roger deliberately chose to have his basses manufactured in series under license in Warwick's climate-neutral production in Germany – thus making it possible for more musicians than ever before to play a genuine Sadowsky. With classic looks but all the modern improvements that have gained his instruments such a good reputation in more than forty years, this bass features: Chambered bodies with modified shaping for less weight and more comfortable playing. Higher-end hardware, hum-canceling pickups, and last but not least the legendary Sadowsky preamp with “boost only” EQ for maximally versatile, always tight tone.
