mikeh Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 (edited) Quite simply the best bass Ive owned, in terms of looks, sound and playability. But at the end of a 2hr gig I do find it a tad heavy ;-) so thought Id offer it up for possible trade, not sure if I can do it or not yet!! Beautiful looking natural body, black SP, maple neck with black blocks. 2 band EQ, with active/passive option. Delano PuP's, with a switch to select either humbucker or single coil for the bridge PuP. Vast array of sounds, but I tend to keep it central for everything. Fast neck, and a nice low action making it a joy to play. Value wise I paid £750 cash for it, and its worth every penny, trade wise its probably worth slightly more than that. I would trade for another Sandberg, as long as its not as weighty ;-) Spector, or WHY [url="http://s4.photobucket.com/albums/y133/thunderthief_31/Gear%20Pics/?action=view¤t=P1030511.jpg"][/url] Edited June 19, 2012 by mikeh
Rayman Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 Outstanding bass from a top bloke, buy with total confidence.

mikeh Posted May 19, 2012 Author Posted May 19, 2012 Heres the original sale thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/156230-sandberg-jm4-now-sold/page__hl__sandberg%20jm4"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/156230-sandberg-jm4-now-sold/page__hl__sandberg%20jm4[/url]
chuck_stones Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 Oh my, that is just about the most perfect Sandberg I could imagine. Don't suppose you have any desire a tanglewood p/j + East pre, weighing in at 9lbs?

chuck_stones Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 No problem, having to shift my LJ bass too, so if that moves and you've still got this, I'd be very interested. Anyway, best of luck with the trade!
mikeh Posted May 22, 2012 Author Posted May 22, 2012 Tentatively withdrawn after playing it at Sundays Gig. But would still consider a trade for a Spector Euro LX, or a white Lakland DJ4 Or another (lighter) JM4
waynepunkdude Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 I played this when it was at the bass bash and tried my hardest to buy it, it really is an amazing bass.
mikeh Posted May 23, 2012 Author Posted May 23, 2012 Replied to Pms type bump. Is still love a spector euro lx ;-)
mikeh Posted May 23, 2012 Author Posted May 23, 2012 Bump, would still like either a Spector Euro LX or a White Lakland DJ 4 strings. May consider a 5 string of either of these basses,

mikeh Posted May 30, 2012 Author Posted May 30, 2012 oops, I seemed to have tripped and bumped this thread
mikeh Posted May 31, 2012 Author Posted May 31, 2012 This is the one and only price drop, due to the fact there are a couple of basses for sale that I would like to buy. Now £700
mikeh Posted May 31, 2012 Author Posted May 31, 2012 Bump for new trade options, Im now fancying going back to playing a 5 string. Again different Sandbergs, Spector Euro LX/Rebop or something like a Lakland DJ 4/5 Still interested in other 4's as well
