Sadowsky Custom Shop 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 Germany, thus making it possible for more musicians than ever before to play a genuine Sadowsky.

This Standard JJ bass has a fiery appearance with its quilted maple top, Burnt Maple Leaf finish and roasted flame maple neck.

Besides a beautiful look, it also offers a comfortable, smooth playability.

The two JJ Sadowsky pickups can be controlled with the volume, balance, tone and VTC knobs. The VTC button also has a push/pull function for a ‘preamp bypass’. This gives you the versatility to create the perfect sound.
