chrisanthony1211 Posted July 22, 2015 Posted July 22, 2015 I just recieved my custom built (took seven months!) Sandberg California TT today, and sat at the bottom of the gig bag was a pair of Sandberg boxer shorts, so I thought I'd do a quick review. These are pretty well designed and finished to say that they are mass produced in some Chinese factory and not hand made by a small European or US boutique manufacturer. They are nice and light, certainly no ancher, and made from 95% premium book matched cotton which will certainly help "the wood!" breath, with 5% elastane and extra room in the crotch for that added comfort. Machine washable at 30oc and double white go faster strips around the top for that added styling. The finish is faultless, a deep, almost translucent black, with absolutely no threads to be seen, double stitched and one size fits all, it really is quite remarkable build quality, and the attention to detail is second to none, they must have exceptional quality control in place. I'm really looking forward to doing my first gig in these, they also have a nice logo to the top of the right leg "always by your side, Sandberg" These very fashionable, well designed boxer shorts may seem a little pricy at £985, however if you buy a pair of these, you do get a free Sandburg California thrown in, I think that's a pretty good deal as their basses are pretty damn good too!

chrisanthony1211 Posted July 22, 2015 Author Posted July 22, 2015 I actually bought my boxer shorts on line from Germany and got a cracking deal with the pound being so strong against the €, no UK companies could get anywhere near the price! Quote

ubit Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Sandberg really cover everything don't they? Just a thought, what if a girl wants a bass? Quote
Bobthedog Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Okay, so they are good for wood, but what about metal? Quote
dannybuoy Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 Your post cheered me up, then the price you quoted for your Sandberg reminded me that the Euro is not doing well lately therefore driving down the price of the TT5 I've been meaning to list on here for ages! Quote
CamdenRob Posted July 23, 2015 Posted July 23, 2015 brilliant... I like Sandbergs... they are like the european fender, solid, reliable, available in a multitude of colours and finishes and would last you a lifetime of bass work. Quote
