Sadowsky Announces Masterbuilt 24-Fret Single Cut Bass Models
Sadowsky has added a Masterbuilt version of the 24-fret Single Cut model to their lineup. Handmade to order in Germany, the basses are crafted from the company’s best hardware and finest woods.
The five-string bass will come in several versions with options. Sadowsky offered three variations to display what one can expect.
First up is a variation in a solid Olympic white high polish finish. It utilizes roasted Birdseye maple for the neck and fingerboard with a swamp ash body. Its pickups are Sadowsky Soapbar pickups with a Sadowsky Treble/Bass boost tone circuit with a mid boost.
The second is a fretless model built with a chambered okoume body and a Brazilian rosewood top. Its ebony fingerboard has white quarter lines for marking the positions. It has the same electronics system.
Finally, Sadowsky presents a 24-fret Single Cut with a chambered swamp ash body and spalted maple master grade top. Its maple neck is fitted with a flamed maple fretboard. Once again, it has Sadowsky soap bars and electronics.
The Sadowsky Masterbuilt 24-fret Single Cuts are available to order with a build time of five to six months. The three models show is priced at $7,960, $10,590, and $7,620.
