Yep Mark made me a great offer on the Sandberg and was very helpful. The other option was Thomann but i'd prefer to buy from UK. Had a few issues with Thomann couple yrs ago and you end up getting charges on your card when dealing abroad altho that may have changed these days as they do Paypal.

That's how it started with me. Its too late for you now. You will now need to buy a Sandberg. You have been hooked. Dave 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave They really are truly great instruments Dave , this far exceeded my expectations and the eq allows for some serious low basslines, your welcome to come and try it if you’re ever in the east London area 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuzzie Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Cheers bud, Passive, Haüssel pick ups, it’s a beast, I think it’s a proper one off. MarloweDK is a great great bass, prob one of their best value ones out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the pick ups are more like the Fender J with 8-pole instead of 4 pole delano style i normally see. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much appreciated. That's what BC is all about. A great bunch of guys happy to share experiences and gear to help you out. Doesn't get much better than this.

Cuzzie Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 @dmccombe7 it’s the options available. The DK has the old Sandberg in-house pick ups which are very nice indeed, but newer versions I think have the Sandberg black label pick ups which are immense. If you notice the bridge pick up is slightly closer for that 70s ‘bite’ Jon Snow has Haüssel pick ups - a small operation in Germany doing fantastic pick ups, and they are very very beefy, so much so the neck solo’d Is about as close to a P as a jazz pick up will get IMO. This I have strung with flats to get that vibe and hence different from the DK. Absolute joy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
