LElls Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 I've had this custom build for a couple of months now and it was well worth the wait, easily the best put together and one of the best feeling basses I've ever played. 9 Quote

Plus pretty sure it's not a drop in replacement so there will most likely be more holes under whatever bridge ends up on the bass. Edited June 19, 2020 by ead 1 Quote

BassApprentice Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 I actually like that. I imagine over time it will become less bling as you wear through to the red underneath. Quote

Nah that bowlocks I have become less attractive as I have aged, and that’s horrific to start with! 2 Quote

maxoges Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 I just got a used 2008 Hardcore aged Sandberg California off a pawn shop. Plays and sounds great! I had two Californa TMs before. This is a better playing and sounding bass for sure! 5 Quote
dmccombe7 Posted June 21, 2020 Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) I really like that even tho i'm generally not a fan of aged basses. That just looks very nice. Well done finding that one. Dave Edited June 21, 2020 by dmccombe7 Quote

Would probably go passive only but liking that a lot Dave I know what you mean but i'm a heathen and thought if the option for the active is there I'd go for it, passive toggle so best of both. I also have a Stu Hamm Urge 2 which I love but the one thing I would change is a passive mode as it's active only. Quote

DoubleOhStephan Posted June 23, 2020 Posted June 23, 2020 I've been on the look out for a used VS4 in almost this exact spec for almost 2 years. This one came up for sale last week, the stars aligned (I sold my Fender P quick sharp) and she arrived today... 8 Quote
