thumbo Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Nice relic job. Do they come like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedontcarebear Posted December 1, 2007 Author Share Posted December 1, 2007 Yeah, they do a soft and hardcore aged type, the sandberg site has a bit more about it, mine is hardcore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Nimrod Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Have Sandberg been making basses long enough for one to actually get into this state naturally? I bet someone here knows when they started out... I only became aware of them fairly recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Did he forget to wrap it before posting it? ;0) Looks nice, get some sound samples up! Cheers ped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedontcarebear Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 They've been around for 21 years, so I guess a bass could get like the aged ones, but I doubt they even made this model back then! I'm not bothered either way, I just wanted a Sandberg again, and this came along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedontcarebear Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 Sandberg are sending me the logo over from Germany to put on by the neck too as it was missing it, very nice of them indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedontcarebear Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 I had to find this thread as I finally changed the strings to my usual 40's yesterday and couldn't remember how long I had the bass (and those strings sat on it)! It's still awesome, in fact, with the new strings, I am preferring it over the Vigier at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub_junkie Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 looks great and a real player. I only recently tried a Sandberg at GuitarGuitar Glasgow............and loved it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedontcarebear Posted September 19, 2008 Author Share Posted September 19, 2008 (edited) Yeah, it is awesome, I had a Sandberg years ago, got it from German ebay and had never heard of them before, sold it as I was playing other instruments more and then when this came up, snapped it up very quickly.

wateroftyne Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I have my eye on something at the moment. If it falls through, I might be ordering one of these.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Dave Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 [quote name='wateroftyne' post='287105' date='Sep 19 2008, 10:14 AM']I have my eye on something at the moment. If it falls through, I might be ordering one of these..[/quote] From the look of your honed working Fender collection , your bass history as posted , and your ruthless, if heart rending, weeding of anything that isn't a perfect fit - you don't strike me as someone who's likely to let the right deal fall through! Look forward to seeing that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wateroftyne Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Why, thank you! Unfortunately, I'm at the point financially where I have to buy what I need rather than want... hence waving godbye to stuff I'd rather keep forever. Fender do a bass to the spec I need, but they're tricky to find. If the one I have my eye on doesn't come off, Sanderg'll do one that's similar. And sunburst. and Torty.

doctor_of_the_bass Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 ..just to add - Adam's Sandberg is excellent - Sandberg basses just feel right - its like you've had one forever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agoulding Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 thats a pretty cool finish. i cant help but piss myslef at some of the relic type stuff brands like vintage come out with...finishes so that you can actually see the sandpaper marks. rediculous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayman Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I love Sandbergs, especially these relic jobs. Never had one, but tried plenty. Very very nice indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
