NYC Custom 24 Fret

The Sadowsky 24-fret bass models are designed for the player who needs a full two octave range on their fretboard. Our Modern version features dual soapbar pickups located closer to the bridge for a tighter, punchier, more modern sound. While this remains our most popular configuration and our favorite
configuration for fretless basses, the 24-fret neck is available in most configurations with traditional J and P and SuperP/SuperJ pickups.

24 fret models are now available in all pickup configurations. Modern soapbar locations are only available in standard style.
