  • Push/pull function on the VTC control for preamp bypass
  • Longer cables between the potentiometers to ensure installation in basses other than Sadowsky basses
  • Screw terminals on the balance potentiometer for solder-free installation of the pickups' hot & ground cables
  • Without control plate
  • Frequency range: 5 - 50,000 Hz
  • Bass control offers +18 dB boost at 40 Hz
  • Treble control offers +18 dB boost at 4 kHz
  • Total harmonic distortion (THD) 0.18% at 1 kHz

Note: When installing a Sadowsky onboard preamp in a MetroExpress bass without a control plate (Modern, Verdine White and M/J models), the holes in the body for the potentiometers must be enlarged. This is due to the fact that the factory-fitted potentiometers of the MetroExpress have a smaller diameter than the potentiometers of the Sadowsky Onboard Preamp
