    I love a P bass. Currently using a 1980 Greco Spacy Sound and this bitsa for a more vintage vibe.

    The TT Mark 2 (started a couple of three years ago) is definitely smaller and possibly a tad thinner than a Fender J bass. My TT is pretty light too at bang on 8lbs (3.6kgs) and it's a 'standard' version rather than a Superlight. Just to note that Sandberg will do other colours not necessarily shown on the configurator. For example I enquired about a Beatsteaks bass in colurs other than yellow and that would not have been a problem so you may well be able to get the Martin Mendez bass not in white. Again Mark at Classic and Cool is your friend here as he was the person who enquired about the non yellow Beatsteaks bass.

    I've a TT4 J bass and a Greco P that I could measure for you if you think that would be helpful, but not comparing apples with apples in this instance.

    @warwickhunt Mark at Classic and Cool has definitely had a few VTs go through, most recently this one. I'm sure he could be helpful. https://classicandcoolguitars.co.uk/portfolio/sandberg-california-ii-vt4-in-candy-apple-red/

    Another great trade with Graham who was, as always, easy to deal with and great at the comms bit. All good and a lovely bass; deal in confidence folks.

    You're such a tart Karl

    As a rule I don't do social media (except BC plus LinkedIn as I have to for work) so don't have accounts on either platform.

    I'm not sure that I would know how to do that

    Good point ref through body. Sandberg necks for me are absolutely the best out there outside of my custom ACG basses.

    It would have to be my ACG fretless J Type:

    Sandberg could make you something fairly similar...although not sure that the switching option on the humbucker is part of the std spec.

    Not always @LukeFRC, I'd say my favorite setting is neck pickup on full throttle and the other backed off about 10%, plus the tone backed off by about 25%. It also works nicely the other way around.

    Started to accumulate some sigs and comments etc. A couple of BC members already captured.

    For sale is this small sized hard case that I used as a mini pedal board for a while but recently acquired some extra stuff so this is now available for others to benefit from. Internal dimensions are: 424mm L x 226mm W x 78mm H. This is the product on the Stagg website: https://staggmusic.com/en/products/view/UPC424-abs-case-for-guitar-effect-pedals-pedals-not-included/ It's in good condition and has been looked after doing the odd gig and rehearsals. Keys included. Here are some pics, happy to take more if you need to see any details in close up. They seem to sell new for around the £40 mark on average, so grab a bargain at £25 plus the cost of postage (if that is required).

    Now sold elsewhere.

    Pretty much where I'm at. Some covers we do I'm really not fussed about but the band are there to entertain so it sort of goes with the territory. Thankfully I also play in an originals band so have the ying and yang thing to balance it all out.

    For sale is my Fender Original P bass pickup, an accurate reproduction of a 1962 Precision Bass Pickup with the copper shielding plate earthed to the pickup and thus to the jack socket earth. This classic split-coil humbucking pickup delivers powerful bass and clear high-end. Enamel-coated magnet wire for warm vintage tone Flush-mount pole pieces for even string response Alnico 5 magnets for more focus and enhanced dynamics Period-correct cloth output wire and fiber bobbin Includes pickup screws and springs £50 including P&P to UK mainland A well-regarded upgrade delivering the classic P bass punch, with plenty of positive comment on the web. The pickup has been working away in my P bass for a couple of years and is in full working order with all the cloth insulated wiring in place. For sale as I have decided to refit the original item to restore the bass to full original condition prior to sale. Let me know if have any questions or would like to see any other detailed images. Thanks for looking.

    That's the '70s version.
