Sadowsky metro express basses.

[Brian18242]

Has anyone tried the latest run of sadowsky metro express basses? Worth the cost at £899? Similar to the previous run, they seem to be generating very little online interest, although I am seriously tempted to give them another shot. Wouldn't be surprised if they are heavily discounted in the coming months.

They had a bit of fanfare when they were first launched, with The Bass Channel for one giving a glowing review on their YT channel, but Warwick and Sadowsky's marketing has been, frankly, awful. I suspect they're likely to be pretty good, with some of the issues the first iteration faced now resolved, but it'll be interesting seeing opinions on whether it's clear cut that being double the price of a Sire V7 is justified.

I may just hang fire to see if the drop in price in the coming months.

Unless you must have the roasted neck and new decal try out a fettled first generation. I’ve got one of the later first gen and it’s a pretty good bass for less than half the price of the new version.
