Hi all

First of all, apologies for those of you who were watching this before but I had a change of heart. I originally put it up (along with my KT) hoping for a quick sale as I had my eye on a very special bass that had come up but alas it’s unlikely that will happen for me now particularly as the on/ off / on again blues rock project is now officially as finally OFF. Shame but that’s how it is I guess. 

Anyway, here it is again, an older original F shape passive VS4 in soft aged finish, great condition with no additional wear and tear other than the soft ageing from the factory. It’s pretty light weight at 3.9kgs and It has been babied and well maintained and it plays really slick for a P type and has a thunderous sound. It is I believe Fiesta red with a lovely thick rosewood board that is a really nice reddish brown colour and compliments this bass... it does have the Fender Pino vibe to it. It hasn’t been modified or messed with and has a proper P style bridge that is original factory fitted rather than Sandberg’s own chunky bridge. It also has a pretty fresh and un-gigged set of DR’s fitted. I don’t really know what else to say, it looks, sounds and plays great.. it’s a P type bass. I think the images speak for themselves. It will come with a nearly new Sandberg leather strap and a Sandberg gig bag.

Absolutely any trial welcome!

I'll be watching this one. 

 

I'm a recently converted P player and I am gasing for a red one, Benfica red. 

I just have to sell one first. 

I would trade my Maruszczyk Jazz Fretless for that. You can find it in the classifieds, os you have any interest.

I would love a Maruszczyk but to be honest I have to sell. I am doing house renovations/ mods and also I am a guitarist who has gone OTT buying basses! I’m selling 2 of my 5, and I keep changing my mind which 2 should go as they’re all great. So at the moment it’s this one and the Ken Taylor. I’m only toying with bass as I’m a guitarist first and foremost so 5 really is OTT.

if you do consider this, I will ship as long as the buyer arranges a courier, I have “built” a box to ship it in, foam, cardboard and plastic corrugated sheet and of course a padded gig bag inside. I would take photos of the packaging for proof.

Just let me know, enjoy the rest of your Christmas!

Don.
