    I have a Sandberg basic 5 that I believe has the first maple fingerboard that Sandberg made, as I asked for it, through the (now extinct) shop that had a dealership. It was custom made... I love the shape & feel of this bass, even though the neck is quite wide ... I was used to playing a Music Man Stingray 5 before.... It was lighter and perfect for for my needs at the time, I was gigging in different countries and was flying often... I did find the stock pickup a little bland.. & swapped it for an Aguilar MM .. which is definitely warmer sounding... My tech guy thinks Sandberg are nothing special, but an obvious marketing success.. I like my basic 5 but it's not my go to bass these days.. cute though!

    I stuck some ' boiled' D'Addario EXL170-5 (so not even new) on mine & the tone is pretty good.. neck pup blended in a bit stronger.. is my preference. Not my favourite bass in my collection but fun and usable... for the right occasion 👽

    They are not the easiest basses to make playable...shim needed, bridge is a bit cheap but I'm not going to replace it.. the strings it comes with are utter pants! Pups are actually not bad, although they look & feel cheap.. action down to something playable.. string spacing is a little narrow for my liking ... but it is quite fun! Got a photo shoot for a 'Space Rock' band coming up... it's got to be part of that! 👽🤘🕉️

    My guitar luthier has worked hard on this bass... it was a bit of a mess tbh! action was impossible! ...It now plays pretty good and it lights up! 🤡😊

    A few gigs from the past weeks... Wigfest cancer charity, Somerset, backing a great new young artist, Ruby Polli, Weston super mare, a bohemian birthday party for 'Ian in wonderland!', Burnham on sea, party in the park... A lot of fun had by all... glad to be involved 😊 The day after each.. made them all 'last nights gig!' 🤔

    I've got a tragic Pat Sharp thing going on! 😱

    I was younger!?! ... Everything seemed longer then! 🤔The mullet is even more disturbing! 😱

    👍... Yes, it does appear to be but the pups were a small single coil at the bridge and a chunky humbucker style at the neck.. maybe a cheaper version of the RB750BK at the bottom? ..

    I used to have an ibanez bass back in the 80s that had a unique shape. Not sure what model it was...can anyone identify it from this pretty poor photo?
  15. bottomfeed
    I've got a lot of love for ibanez ATK basses.. my 5 string is my most 'go to' bass, still..

    Blimey!... Literally just arrived! Expected arrival date was Oct 17th!!! It's playable but needs a decent set up.. Tone is quite impressive at a first twiddle too...

    Mine appears to be even slower!... Just gone through customs in China..Now the ETA is October 17th! ..But apparently on a plane, 25th August... that's positive! ..I hope?

    Early 80's Tune 'Bass Maniac'... Very unique sounding bass..

    The GS range is my favourite sounding Aguilar cabs.. I had a pair of 12's with various heads over the years..then stupidly sold them because I was romanced by the lure of SL12s being lighter.. Soon found out that they were totally not my sound at all.. so eventually sold them & found someone selling 2 pristine hardly used ones.... Bought them for the same price as my original new ones! Win win!!

    Rig 2: Aguilar AG700 + 2 GS112s

    I wonder how low an offer can be made before they say no!?
  25. bottomfeed
    Well... I didn't mean to! ..but I noticed the 'make an offer' section.. & after a large glass of wine or two.. offered £300.. next day, I saw it was excepted!.. jeez, commited now! ...Here we go!... See what turns up! ? 🤔
