May try to detour to Bass San Diego. If anyone has any ideas of another shop let me know.. I'll be heading to NAMM from Albuquerque..

All the metro 4 strings are 1.5 inch nut unless you get a Will Lee which is 1.45. UV metros are 10 degree radius, other metros are 12 degree. All metro 5s are 12 degree
NYC is different. There are many more possibilities.

thanks | The other place you can play a number of Sadowsky Metros (in the LA area) in stock right now is Mesa Boogie Hollywood. No affiliation, just been there once and can vouch that they have a fun store.

And speaking of green, I love the look of the grass being reflected in the bass Nino is holding.  |

- vintage tint finish, 20 fret maple fingerboard.
- 1 3/4" nut width.
