Great video! I tried a used RSD JJ5 at guitar center, and it’s one of the best sounding easy to play 5 strings I’ve ever played. Thinking about getting one soon, all my fenders have had nut and tuning machine problems, always needing to be replaced. Hopefully sadowsky will be better.
Hey dude. Random question. Unrelated to this particular vid, which is very cool btw. Did you play bass on KellyeAnn Keough's EP with Well Behaved Women and Memphis on it? It was so good.
True. The Metro Express series is more affordable ($1,000-$1,200 USD range) but still mid-priced. I'm in Canada so they're like $1,500+ which is still out of my price range.
@@silviosarunic6709 Caro amico, io percepisco una buona pensione e non ho problemi a comprarmi un Fodera. Nella mia vita ho avuto quasi tutti i bassi hi-end che esistono al mondo: pensa, ho avuto un Tobias prima ancora che venissero importati in Italia, nel 1988. Semplicemente un Sadowsky non vale i soldi che costa. Piuttosto tu procurati un cervello e un pò di umiltà, che sei TROPPO arrogante.
Has the previous "Sadowsky" logo returned to the metro express? (My English listening is freakin' bad, so I apologize if it has already been mentioned in the video;;) thx for so great sound demo!
I know I'm gonna get hate for this but here goes... Fender might be an industry standard but I feel like most basses have more personality/life/better tone than Fender. They just seem lifeless and flat to me. That Sadowsky sounds great though.
Fender is boring and basic, but you can't go wrong with them. Producers know exactly what they're getting when they record one. I get the appeal even if I'm into more adventorous stuff like ESP and Spector.
That makes a lot of sense to me. I'm not producer or anything, but I have a 70's Jazz bass that has TOO much personality, and sometimes that does not match what the song asks for... I feel that basses with more flat tone would sound better in such cases. But seems really cool when you find a bass with a certain personality that matches what the song asks for.
Fender ultra is a garbage try to find a used fender elite I owned one 2018 and it’s a beast I will buying one of the sadowsky v2 rust maple morado and I will upgrade the electronic to svt
Thanks. I bought my MetroExpress five string two months ago and love it. I upgraded to Vintage Tone Control.

Yes .
Jason Newsted was playing this bass in the "I Disappear" video. It was pretty then and it's pretty now.
Jason's collection of Sadowsky basses are awesome. The all black with black hardware is especially awesome.

I just ordered My Lefty SADOWSKY JJ I should have it by Christmas
I don't hear any noise when going to a single pickup, are they using noise-cancelling pickups now?
Sadowsky basses are outrageously expensive!

These ones are about $1000 USD. Upmarket for sure, but not outrageous.
@@sethcampbellmusic you are right. I was referring to the most expensive line. 👍

Yes, Roger now owns the trademark in China now so all MetroExpress basses will feature the Sadwosky logo.
@@mtbush That's gooood news...
Just bought Fender Deluxe, but I may end up buying this one soon.
Appreciate your info!!
You have an added touch screen. What is your brand? Pardon my ignorance.
Fender on steroids! Love it
I thought they we supposed to have roasted maple necks? Are you sure that is the 2023 edition?
for sure do a shoot out
👍👌
IT LOOKS LLIKE MY BASS JAYME
i dont have to even watch this vid. fender is so mid but people buy it bc of the name

Their signature basses do have more personalities. Love the new Mike Kerr sig and don't forget to check out the Mononeon one
U sound nuts
Nope. No way do I agree with that.
It does not look like 2023 model
Heck no not better than a Fender.
You haven’t answered the question in the thumbnail. Clickbait 👎
Hmm, looking for all kind of reviews, American Jazz fill the bill way better.
As soon as I saw 'made in China', I said nope.
made in china?
Why buy something like this when you can get the real FENDER, the new American Ultra sound and play amazing , why buy a copy of the real thing?
because the Sadowsky preamp plays different than the Fender Ultra preamp!
It plays a lot better and lighter weight for a 5 strings
Fender ultra is a garbage try to find a used fender elite I owned one 2018 and it’s a beast I will buying one of the sadowsky v2 rust maple morado and I will upgrade the electronic to svt
Not impressed it sounds like a Fender Jazz.
