thebeat Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 (edited) Decided that i want another Jazz bass so have decided to flog or trade this in order to fulfil my wish Bass itself is in excellent condition and a very nice bass to play...very Stingrayish in sound but plenty of bottom end. Neck is one of the nicest i've ever played badly and i've played a few badly in my day . Comes with gigbag and i'm asking either a trade for some sort of sunburst jazz bass with cash from me for the right one...alternatively £425 posted...payment by bank transfer only. [b] Bump for a price drop due to the fact that the barrel jack socket needs replacing with a switching model as the current one is non switching and the battery drains after a week in the bass. dropped to £375 posted or £350 collected.[/b] Edited July 10, 2009 by thebeat
budget bassist Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 ooooooh that's nice, goddamn i wish i could afford this, gorgeous bass!

GreeneKing Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 And welcome Vispo. Our 1st Ukrainian member? Great looking bass btw. Sandbergs have a good reputation and Homer's is a real beaut.

budget bassist Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 (edited) what's the neck profile like? precision or jazz or somewhere in between? couldn't find a measurement on the sandberg site Edited July 7, 2009 by budget bassist
martthebass Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 That is a fantastic price - wish I could justify another fretted 4 stringer.... Budget Bassist - you'll love the neck, honest.

I'm really only selling this to get another Sandberg...a PM4 this time. Edited July 7, 2009 by thebeat
budget bassist Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 nice one, if i could afford this i really would, but the only way i could do that is by selling my musicman, and i don't think i could do that good luck with the sale, once again, gorgeous bass!
bigthumb Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 Flaming bargain dodgy jack or not! I had one of these some years ago but it was a boring black one. The colour is fantastic, I love it. Cracking basses. I got mine from PMT in Brum and I sold my Stingray to fund it! They're that good!
