Bump to the top again...

[quote name='MarkusWarwick' post='742781' date='Feb 12 2010, 07:40 AM']cheers man, yeah, its a great bass, but 5 string just aint my thing![/quote] Is a Sandberg Fretless 4 of interest as a trade?

[quote name='wildman' post='737460' date='Feb 6 2010, 06:06 PM']Its slim, more like the Fender than the Warwick. I own a Fender J and used to own a Warwick Streamer. Definitely not the baseball bat style of the Warwick and very slightly thicker than my Fender J. My Fender's neck is 22mm thick at the 12th fret. The Sandberg's neck is 25mm thick at the 12th "fret" - the octave position, 15mm at the first "fret" - it fans out slightly so its a bit thicker at the nut position itself. Cheers, John[/quote] Bump...

[quote name='The Burpster' post='735773' date='Feb 5 2010, 07:14 AM']Getting more interested..... How deep is the neck..? (damn shame Sandberg dont put any of this info on their webby!) is it shallow like a late model Fender P or Warwick deep D shape...? I've always liked thier basses but not got around to trying one.[/quote] Its slim, more like the Fender than the Warwick. I own a Fender J and used to own a Warwick Streamer.

Nut width = 40mm String spacing at nut = 10mm String spacing at bridge = 20mm Fretboard wear = Negligible; its only ever had flats on it [quote name='The Burpster' post='735307' date='Feb 4 2010, 05:37 PM']String spacings at nut ( and nut width ) please.... Also string spacings at bridge....? Is there any wear on the fretboard...? Mildly interested, if its a widish neck.....[/quote]

Bump. Cant believe how far down its gone in a few days....!

Weekly bump !

[quote name='vmaxblues' post='725506' date='Jan 26 2010, 05:46 PM']In answer to the question, string spacing at the nut is approx 9mm from centre of strings, hope this helps[/quote] Mate, It was the bridge spacing that I really wanted.....

[quote name='Koolhandsllew' post='725875' date='Jan 26 2010, 11:07 PM']Hi wildman, just a really quick community 'shout out' to say the bass is exactly as advertised and sounds even better. Real happy we did the deal, thanks for being so genuine! (in my view, a quality that is getting harder to find these days) Hope the gig in Brighton went well. cheers Llew[/quote] Llew, It was a pleasure to meet and do business with you ! Again a community shout - I have been messed around a lot with this sale and with two other basses too. It was great to find someone totally honest and genuine. Glad you like the Lakland. The Brighton gig was a barnstormer so that made it a great day for both of us ! In a strange twist, yesterday I was asked to play keys (my first instrument) in a session for an up and coming band (knowing that you are switching back to bass from keys !) If you want to set up a feedback thread on BC I would be the first to contribute a positive message ! Cheers John

Hey Stuart, Whats the string spacing at the bridge ? Thanks, John

Trades considered, or "reasonable" cash offers. Cheers, John

Bump to the top again. eBay beckons.....

[quote name='Schnozzalee' post='716958' date='Jan 18 2010, 07:20 PM']Bump[/quote] C'mon guys, Buy my Sandberg so I can buy this !!

No response so still available.

[quote name='Schnozzalee' post='711432' date='Jan 13 2010, 03:43 PM']Cheers cm261, Cort make fantastic basses. This is my second, the first was a Cort A4 that I got made fretless. So good had to get another! They have a masterpiece series above this that had fancy wood tops which looked about over a grands worth of wood for £800![/quote] I'd like to try a six. Trouble is I need to sell my Sandberg fretless 4 to fund the purchase. Do you fancy a trade ?

[quote name='MattCvijan' post='712174' date='Jan 14 2010, 01:01 AM']Is this still available. very interested. Living NW London. Cheers[/quote] Yes its still for sale. Drop me a PM and we can arrange a meet....

[quote name='phagor' post='710581' date='Jan 12 2010, 09:00 PM']Nice DX7. And Lakland of course! Bump.[/quote] Mk1 no less - a great workhorse. Thanks for the bump !

[quote name='BigBeatNut' post='706467' date='Jan 9 2010, 12:30 PM']Yeah, bit of a shame that ... though a bonus if you're an MM fan I guess (?). I wonder how much it would cost to fill and try to hide those holes. Would it involve a re-fin ? and how effective would it be ? Andy[/quote] I think it would be hard to hide them completely without refinishing of some kind. If you are serious, I can find out.

Bump

[quote name='The GroovyPlucker' post='705742' date='Jan 8 2010, 05:02 PM']Hi, I have a Warwick Corvette Double Buck $$ 5 String I'm looking to sell/trade at the moment, The GroovyPlucker[/quote] I had a $$ before this and changed it because the string spacing on the $$ was too narrow. Sorry about that.

Bump, Outright sale preferred, but trades now considered for a cheaper five string - with 18mm string spacing
