INFORMATION
REVIEWS
Roger Sadowsky's goal was always to further improve an already very successful bass design by making a number of detailed
improvements. Along with the electronics, which he developed by himself, he succeeded to raise the well-known J/J bass sound to
a new level, so today you can speak of a typical Sadowsky tone: Never harsh or shrill sounding, with strong, powerful but never
muddy bass, with present, but not too aggressive mids, and a sweet and airy treble range. All features of this modern bass sound
can also be found in the 21-Fret Vintage J/J basses of the MetroLine series made exclusively in Germany. All basses are
lightweighted with approximately 8.9 bs (4.0 kg). A good choice for bass players who are looking for a lightweight solution for the
stage in addition to a modern bass sound. Special features of the Vintage J/J basses of this series are the active electronics with true
bypass, Vintage Tone Control, treble and bass boost, ultralight Sadowsky tuners and the special Sadowsky bridge for quick string
release. This 4-string bass in sleek undersized J-Style shaped red alder body comes in Solid Olympic White High Polish finish.

thanks 

That’s a nice looking jazz! How long have you owned it and what’s the reason for selling it on? 

FMT:-FLAMED MAPLE TOP.

QMT:- QUILTED MAPLE TOP.

The way the top is cut is the only difference. 

Hi,

I have not seen any new old stock advertised anywhere.I bought it new and the only thing I have done is had it properly set up and couple of hours or so playing about on it and that’s it! It’s been stored really since 2003. 😮

That’s my main reason I have priced it as such but also after looking around in showrooms for overall build quality , setup and sound there’s not much of a choice from sub £2000.00. It’s always subjective on what someone is willing to pay for something. Plus the never ending problem on a lot of basses trying to achieve a low action! Not with this bass! 

If I don’t sell it will remain in its case for another few years I guess.  Even my Sadowsky MV4 doesn’t come close to this for overall build quality but the presentation of the electronics cavity and shielding on the sadowsky is superb! 

I have many fender basses but my Favorite is a 1974 American Jazz Bass ( ex Julian Crampton )  plus a Sadowsky but the build quality of this bass is not surpassed by any current fender bass on offer! A lot of the time you struggle to get a low action on many new basses but this is ideal and something you can work with as opposed with not managing to get it low enough so if you like digging in just simply raise the action. 

I have for sale an American Fender Jazz Bass QMT which according to the serial number was made in 2003. I purchased the bass in 2004 with a Badass 2 bridge fitted and it was set up by the bass gallery with a low action. The original bridge comes with the bass (string through body type) and all the original candy is there including cleaning spray and rag (still in package) truss rod wrench, and guitar lead. Comes with original brown G & G USA made case. The bass is in new old stock condition! 

Below is an advert for the bass when it was introduced which gives a full breakdown of specs.

The new American Deluxe Jazz Bass QMT is a stunning piece of classic Fender craftsmanship. With a Quilt Top, this Jazz Bass features a beautiful 1/8" thick piece of solid figured maple that is hand bent to the top for the "perfect" sonic and visual compliment. Along with all the standard qualities that make this a Jazz Bass, the "New" Samarium Cobalt Noiseless pickups offer you the ultimate in superior tone and flexibility. In addition, the new American Deluxe Jazz Bass features built-in active EQ for control of treble, midrange, and bass boost. And this Jazz Bass gives you the choice of a topload or strings-through-body bridge. American DeLuxe Jazz Bass QMT Features:
