Spacing?

Another unscripted clip which might give a better impression of the sound per pickup. Sandberg S1 6'93.mp4

Short and awkward demo of the Sandberg S1 recorded with no EQ, effects or compression directly through my Focusrite 2i2. Film op 24-04-2021 om 14.27.mov

Sure. But haven’t recorded anything yet.

Yes still got it. Compared with Sadowsky’s... well... aa much as I am a Sadowsky fan and user.. the build quality, woods used and construction (neck through!) are flawless. The playability is great and the sound is comparable a tiny bit with an average Sadowsky Modern bass but sweeter highs and warmer/fuller on the bass side. I make this comparison since you ask but it is a hard thing to do right. I really like a lot of this S1. I alao have a Fodera Anthony Jackson 6 ‘90 which I love too and prefer since it has 19mm spacing but soundwise, they are different instruments too, the Sandberg S1 is at least as ‘fat’.

Thank you!

What is the string spacing?

It's a beauty Rainer!

34"!

Thanks for asking: Bartolini pickups, fretboard ebony, through-neck maple with hard wood stringers, body I think is mahogany. The weight is 4300 on my kitchenscale. Strining spacing is 17,5 but adjustable. I can include a generic solid hard case.

Thanks for asking. It is 34". I added some more specs. I'm just not quite sure about the wood species. .

NOW SELLING FOR €999/£850 Trades considered Fantastic classic Sandberg S1 6 string from the days (1993) when Sandberg was making name and fame with own designs, top materials and masterbuilt instruments that were on par with the most exclusive basses in de market. This 28 year old bass has some playing marks and a small crack at the backside of the headstock (nothing serious) but most of all tons of tone(s) and versatility that suits practically any style of music. Some specs: Neckthrough construction Ebony board, maple neck with hardwoord stringers (not sure which wood species) Mahogany body (not sure), top wood ? 34" +/- 17,5 mm spacing (adjustable) 4300 grams (kitchenscale) Bartolini pickups Original Scitus pre amp with active/passive (pull)switch, and three band eq.

Up!

Have sent you a reply!

Is this pre Sadowsky? 😉

Very nice black Sadowsky Modern Metro Japan 24-5 with the great Sadowsky humbuckers and Sadowsky pre-amp with VTC. Not a Metro Express and not a Warwick or Chinese Sadowsky but a perfect Japanese Sadowsky.. Good balance. Comes with original Sadowsky case. Signs of wear but great looking and no issues.

Still available!

>>I put the AJ6 on sale since I'm not a 6 string player and need to sell some stuff. Buuuut...I played the AJ6 last night: it's simply fabulous. I decided to keep it.<< Anthony Jackson from 1990, the period that Fodera was establishing it's name worldwide, Mr. Vinny Fodera himself built those basses and Mr. Anthony Jackson was one of the 'first call' session cats for about any style of music from pop to jazz in the highest imaginable playing fields. If you look for a thunderous low B and crispy highs.. well this bass has it.. but it has more to offer. The bass feels like an extension of your fingers. Very musical. Very articulate. With a kind of smoothness only the driest great tonewoods reveals. This AJ6 has a voice of its own. Check out the records on which Anthony Jackson played a same instrument. Anything else I would add to praise the bass could start to sound a bit exaggerated. So I decided not to do that. After all an instrument like this will reveal its possibilities in the hands of the player. Some details Anthony Jackson 6 string neck-through (before the time this was called a 'Custom Elite': all Fodera's back then were custom built!) 34" 19" string spacing (adjustable) Walnut body Quilted maple top body Maple neck Light Ebony Fingerboard Bartolini T Style soapbars Haz Labs pre amp (Volume, balance, 2 band EQ, Active/passive switch, kill switch) Approx. 5kgs Great balance, very comfortable to play Comes with OHSC (Fodera Teardrop case) Strings: Fodera Anthony Jackson (what else? ;-)) Decent offers and trades considered (Sadowsky 5 NYC PJ Maple, Alleva Copplo 5, Spector USA 5, Ken Smith 5 (19mm spacing)...but sorry: + cash!)
