Papabull Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) This awesome bass was custom made for me by Sandberg. The finish is actually a warm creme. My iPhone makes it look almost white but in reality it looks much nicer. It has a matching headstock. I spec'd an ebony fretboard with pearl block inlays. It's an active P bass bass and sounds fantastic in active and passive mode. It's in pristine condition without any marks or blemishes. 10/10. It comes with a standard Sandberg gig bag. Used only for recording in my home studio. Now £975 Edited October 12, 2017 by Papabull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuzzie Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Ok that I have no doubt, Sandberg bases are incredibly well made, and their in house pups are fantastic and definitely bring the thunder passive or active. Come on Mr Fretmeister, he’s given you 3 locations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRBboy Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Oooh, if this had a maple board..... seriously though, incredible basses! I have an ebony fretboard pin my sandberg Ken Taylor, and it's by far the nicest fretboard I've ever played. GLWTS man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
