Sadowsky Metroline Express??

Hey everyone... we are excited to officially announce the new MetroExpress bass series today and will have a few with us at our NAMM booth (#5129) to check out if you are attending the show.

Here's the basic info: The MetroExpress basses will include the legendary Sadowsky preamp as well as Sadowsky pickups, strings, and hardware. Instruments will be available in 4 and 5 string vintage models with the following finishes: black, olympic white, candy apple red, sage green metallic, ice blue metallic, and tobacco burst. Built with either an alder body and morado fingerboard or an ash body and maple fingerboard, each bass is guaranteed to weigh less than 8.9 pounds. Street price is $1875 for the 4-string models and $1975 for the 5-string models.

Thank you for the information!
So what exactly are the differences between the new Metro Express line and the existing MV and RV Metroline?
