seabirch Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Hi having had to return a Musicman Stingray to the shop as couldn't get on with the neck in the upper frets (found string spacing too wide for my hands), I played around with six different basses including a Fender Marcus Miller, a Fender Custom shop Jazz and a Sandberg Bullet in bubinga, I came away with Sandberg Ken Taylor in cream. Just love the sound and feel of it. [attachment=38697:DSCF5991.JPG] [attachment=38696:DSCF5986.JPG] Jonathon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warwickhunt Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Wasn't sure who KT was so I Googled it, especially as the headstock was reminiscent of a bass played by a coloured guy in the 80's/90's that had some patented 'floating neck' but it wasn't him obviously as I now know KT played in The Scorpions. However I did find a youtube vid of someone using a Sandberg KT... this guys style and mannerisms remind me of someone but for the life of me I can't quite put my finger on who!

martthebass Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 Had a 5 string one of these earlier this year.......lovely bass, very versatile and a great playable neck. Needed a fretless and so off it went, damn wifey's '3 basses only' rule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veils Posted December 21, 2009 Share Posted December 21, 2009 I've always maintained that I have never missed a bass as much as my old Cali JM4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
