[quote name='Highfox' timestamp='1504883818' post='3368073'] I found the secret to the sound I like on mine is to drive the gain hard, maybe 1 0'clock a slight bump to the bass and treble the rest of the eq at noon and with a P that cut's and isn't boomy at all imo. Edit, Not sure I would call it boomy? Vid with the 500 combo on it's own from a party I had at my place this summer, recorded on a gopro. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4B9Ov7wUrw [/quote] Highfox that sounds great! Were you going through the pa or backline only?

Wow, thanks for all the replies guys! For some reason didn't get any notifications.... hoping to go t-up the shop tomorrow to a/b with my current rig, as I know what level I have that at for gigs, so should be able to judge if it has the guts. I'm really hoping it does! If so I'll be putting my lovely current rig up for sale!

Hi folks, Seriously tempted to get one of these little fellas, they seem incredibly light and compact but chuck out some big noise! I've searched the forum and found a lot of positive vibes from last year and beyond, but just wondered if everyone's still so positive after using them for a good while? (as I know new shiny things can build a lot of excitement!) We are a loud pub/wedding rock band essentially, 100w valve half stack and 50w valve combo, backline only, vocals only through the pa..... would the rumble keep up? Obvs bigger events with a proper pa, everything would go through it, but those are rare. Grateful for any experience/insight from owners! Cheers all!

Hi folks! Just wondered of anyone here has any experience with the Hartke 5410 combo. It's basically an LH500 mounted in an extended hydrive 410 enclosure. Tempted by one at the moment, but I just wondered how they are in practice? (I'm unable to try one first) Thanks!

Oooh......

Haha! Hadn't clocked the non reverse p before, but know you say it I realise I know you from the Sandberg players group on fb too! It's a great pickup combination, I used to have an old Cali vm and tonally it was possibly the best I've had.

VERY nice collection Ead! Do you tend to favour one, and if so which? I'm STILL contemplating another..... can't justify it really, but y'know...
-
Thanks for your replies guys, looks like I'm headed to Ruislip in the morning then! It's gonna be a long day...... But great hopefully!

Haven't checked, but I'm assuming there's parking at Olympia? Also, does anyone take a bass with them or not?
-
Arrrggghhh! I've been looking for this thread for ages and only just found it! Looking forward to meeting any of you guys that are there, I'm going on Sunday. Weird question maybe, but is anyone taking a bass?
-
Omg, I wanted one of these so badly when I first saw them! Gorgeous bass, GLWTS.

Dude! I can't believe this is still here! I'm gassing for a jazz with a maple board too...... Temptation......

[quote name='tricky' timestamp='1479769000' post='3179213'] [attachment=232497:TM4 Front.jpg] Not had this long - it's my first sandberg but won't be my last. [attachment=232498:13962870_1197371340314035_8120322261634799421_o.jpg] [/quote] Very nice mate, and quite unusual! I'm trying to talk myself out of ordering another one at the moment......

Now sold, thanks folks. 😀 👍 -
Bump! Offers welcome
-
Thanks BB! Certainly is a LOT of bass for the money, feels and sounds like a far more expensive instrument, and definitely got that familiar sandberg feel.

Pics added.

Apologies folks, for some reason the uploaded won't work at the moment, will add pics as soon as I can.

Hi guys! Selling my Cort Arona 5, which I bought last year. These are really superb instruments for the money, the neck feels fantastic, and they sound great. The result of a collaboration between Cort and highly respected German hand made bass manufacturer Sandberg. They are designed by Sandberg, and built by Cort. Featuring a swamp ash body, maple neck with rosewood fretboard, Sandberg hardware, Delano Desonic J/Mm pickups, and two band eq with passive bypass. These seem to be becoming quite hard to come across now, which is a shame because they're excellent basses. Although I bought it as a backup, thankfully I've never needed to use it on a gig, so pretty much just been used for home practice. It's in very good condition, there's a very slight shiny patch above the neck pickup from my thumb, and a ding just inside the curve of the top horn, but otherwise superb. Selling because it just doesn't get used much, and I could do with freeing up the cash. It doesn't come with a gigbag or case. Preferably buyer to collect, but I can fairly easily arrange a courier at the buyers cost. Thanks for looking! Let me know if you have any questions.

Definitely speak to the guys at sandberg service, they're great! They've posted me parts before. Contact [email protected] The pickups probably are original, they've been using their own pickups on most of the range for quite a while now, but do still use Delano's on some models. Way back, they were pretty much all Delano. Don't forget that all Sandbergs are essentially made to order, so they can vary. Most common pickups are Sandberg's own, Delano or Haussel, but you could have anything in theory.
