I think I read somewhere regarding Sandbergs that if there is no serial number due to special order or custom job, then there should be a certificate of authentication with the bass. Of course I may have just dreamt it. La-la-la. [/quote] Its a sort of Musicman size humbucker at the bridge. Doesnt sound like a MM bass though. Really liking it after an initial front room tinkle today. Gonna pop a Hipshot detuner on it, get a couple of gigs out of it and probably pop my Spector up for sale (trying to keep a strict 2 bass policy)

Ah, i'll have a peek later Cheers

I have a new one!

Think it may be... Its a PM/VM4 in satin blackburst, rosewood neck with a matched headstock and block markers. Sort of like a Supreme but non standard colour. Has the older knobs with the Sandy logo on.

Just picked up a Sandberg California PM4 yesterday. Wheres the serial number likely to be though? Its not on the back of the headstock and i'm curious. Oh, and pics to follow later.................

Played a semi famous East London pub for the second time last night. Went down a storm first time a few weeks ago, 3 rebooks this year and every 8 weeks for 2015 confirmed by promoter. Was a bit of a worry when we saw he had the wrong band on the posters for our night and he wasnt interested in contacting the other band in case he had double booked. I had to find them on Facebook and sort everything out - turns out it was the landlords error and they werent aware of it so ended up ok. Late start and finish - 11 till 2am - and the crowd run out of money/start falling over about 1ish it seems. They stop entry at 12 so it really thins out later. Security staff did an excellent job of stopping everyone dancing for health and safety reasons (apparently requested by landlord??) Consequently, we played a 1 hr first set and 1.5 hr second set and started winding down about 1.30 as there were only about 10 people left in there. Cue landlord raging at us for not playing till closing time. He was really rude and aggressive about it too. We offered to hop back up and play the remaining 20 mins to the (now 4) remaining punters but he was not interested by now and was being a complete uncooperative arse. Seemed like he was looking to chip our fee but he payed up in the end. We've never had a reaction like this in 12 years of gigs and we pride ourselves on giving everything at every gig regardless of the venue. Really p###ed me off and spoilt what had been a good gig until that point. Spleen vented :-)

I may be wrong but I think the combo jacks are dark green

Send me a few packs and i'll check them out for you!!!

I have, and they were excellent!

[quote name='seashell' timestamp='1393080220' post='2375953'] There are so many! Because I have come to this lark quite late in life, there are still so many classics I'd love to do that you guys are thoroughlly sick of...Freebird, Sweet Home, Allright Now etc. But to just keep it to one that I actually know the bass line to, and that my band would never do, it would have to be.. Enter Sandman :-) [/quote] We do Sandman - it always goes down a storm. Great to watch a 50+ year old audience headnbanging to it and then pogoing to Pretty Vacant at the end of the set!

Bought some strings from Loz A most rewarding experience! Cheers mate

I keep thinking about a white Sandberg PM4, hard core aged, rosewood, white scratchplate! Its going to happen but i am desperately trying not to do it!!!

Have a look on YouTube for "Rio Isolated Bass" Its absolutely bonkers and you realise how much gets buried in the final mix
