CyberBass Posted May 22, 2012 Posted May 22, 2012 (edited) Never thought I would even contemplate selling this amazing bass, but as much as I love it, am using my Yamaha BB424 live, it suits what I am doing without the worry of live usage dings etc. Where as the UMBO I don't want to risk, so don't play it half as much. So am thinking of selling it and buying a second Yamaha BB Bass to supplement my live work. Here is a link to Sandberg page [url="http://www.sandberg-guitars.de/basscat-overview/calt-series/calumbo"]http://www.sandberg-...-series/calumbo[/url] I truely can't underestimate how lovely this bass is, plays like butter a real quality bass with huge tonal jazz flexabilty. It's pretty much as new so am looking for £850 inc delivery. [b]NEW PRICE £650 inc delivery[/b] (almost 50% off rrp) Any questions fire away. Comes with a nice Sandberg Gig Bag, tool and new spare set of strings. The strings on the bass have loads of life still in them also.

CyberBass Posted May 22, 2012 Author Posted May 22, 2012 Hi richardd, No it's the white with matching headstock (more an off white cream), it's my avatar pic. Will try and upload some pictures soon. It's stuning and plays amazingly well. I tried it against Fender American series Jazz, and imho it was far better bass in every way :-)
TRBboy Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 Nooooooo! If you love it just keep it and use it, don't worry about the odd ding! It's a bass guitar, it was designed to be played! Good luck with the sale though if you don't come to your senses!
GregHughes Posted May 23, 2012 Posted May 23, 2012 That is very nice. If I had the money available I'd buy that off you. Good luck with the sale.
CyberBass Posted May 23, 2012 Author Posted May 23, 2012 Thanks all, and it sounds as good as it looks :-)
CBbass Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 Whoa! That looks awesome. Haven't seen one before. Good luck!
karlfer Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 I'm assuming that's not this actual bass on the website?
CyberBass Posted May 25, 2012 Author Posted May 25, 2012 It's not the bass in the actual picture but it is that colour version. My profile picture shows it. I will try and sort some pics to upload.
CyberBass Posted June 6, 2012 Author Posted June 6, 2012 I don't have scales handy, but according to a bass guitar magazine review it says it is 4.2kg/9.25lbs it's not a heavy bass, perfect balance to me and no neck dive. Absolutely lovely bass :-)
CyberBass Posted June 11, 2012 Author Posted June 11, 2012 After a long hard try at making my marriage work, things have come to a head, so really need to get money behind me now. So please feel free to make me a reasonable offer :-(
chuck_stones Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Ah mate, really sorry to hear that. Wish I could offer you something for this beauty but all I've got is.trade bait. Best of luck and I seriously hope someone picks this up soon!
CyberBass Posted June 13, 2012 Author Posted June 13, 2012 Thanks Chuck, it's a painful process, hopefully will be amicable. It's a lovely bass and a real shame to let it go. Hopefully it will go to a good home.
