Strings
If you place the highest demands on your instrument, you shouldn't make any compromises when it comes to the strings. Roger Sadowsky has made it his task to constantly improve the strings for his instruments and to adapt them to his high standards - the result are the Sadowsky strings for guitar and bass, which are offered in different versions and gauges for every taste.

Strings for E-Bass
Strings for E-Guitar

Pedals
The Sadowsky preamp pedals are based on the active onboard bass electronics that Roger Sadowsky developed himself decades ago. Since then, the legendary circuit has set the tone in all of his basses - highly versatile yet easy to control, powerful and well-balanced in all frequency ranges. The preamp effects pedals bring that sound into a convenient stompbox format for any bass without the Sadowsky electronics.

Bags
Roger Sadowsky designed his gig bags for busy New York City musicians who needed to carry their instruments on everything from subways, to busses, cars and even airplanes. Made from amazingly robust materials, these gig bags are unobtrusively streamlined, have cleverly integrated storage spaces and are equipped with many practical features.
