Rollin Thunder

NBD Decided to pull the trigger on this, arrived today. New to Sandberg, wanted a new Fender Jazz to replace a Mexican deluxe a regrettably sold 3 years ago, but heard good things about Sandbergs and having shopped around saw this in sale (Bit of a bargain) had a quick run-though, one issue/possibly, it seemed a bit quiet, noticed the pick ups specially the neck was very low only about 2mm above the body and bridge maybe 4-5mm figured this was not right? So lifted them both 2-3mm higher and it sounded allot better., enough that I had to role volume back bit when boosting pre amp to about 75% strings look like Daddarios but label says Sandbergs own brand, can anyone confirm, they seem a bit on the higher tension side might have to change them, see if they bed in. add some real photos later, its much more yellowy:butterscotch than the stockings photo (not in a bad way) https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/product/sandberg-electra-ii-tt4-creme/

Ive just discovered the prize drive(Noble overdrive) wow! thats the the best drive on the Helix for bass on the Helix, can do subtle boost, tubey overdrive to full on distortion and holds the low end easily. why have I missed this up to this point?

Two notes, revolt or le bass, mid prices high quality and versatile multi channels, get what sound you want, great clean channel, bit of grit if you want all the way to higher gain if required.

Ther’re good, like the look of the sparkle black 4 string.

Great band, semi parody or serious who knows, superb debut album bot a dud track on it.

Not a cover, Zodiac wrote it/co wrote it for Alice and fid his/their own version as well.

Green Manalishi is epic The original is dark n broody but Priests version is sensational see also Diamonds and Rust. Give you Jonny b goode

Yes, both have there merits

Dylans version of all along the Watch Tower is utter crap compared to Hendrix’s original !!!!!!

Another one i like, like the original and this for different reasons

I always thought this was a pure fosters take, just too mates having a laugh

I like downtown train

They do look the Dogz sound wise usability, sound line you are really getting great usage out of them. Food for thought!

Can cope with headphone cable still use wired headphones on my phone. It the tone app any good for these?

No I haven’t, search ed in the effects section and misc section as a though more a multi effect unit than amp. whats the NUX like that looks a good inexpensive alternative.

Anybody had experience/own these or the guitar version https://www.boss.info/global/products/waza-air_bass/ interested in having a set for lounging out on the sun lounger in the summer, or for in hotel room when away in business. i have preamp but and Stomp but messing about getting power and cables doesn’t appeal to me. they are also nit cheap so are there good viable alternatives our there

Two notes LeBass great Tube ore amp I’ve just upgraded to the new Revolt pedal so looking yo get this to a good home.

Well who was it that “quoted” they don’t like Nathan at Andertons fiddling with his knobs 😂

The over fiddling with the knobs!

Thats the bit i don’t like 😂

When he was in (founded) Sigue sigue sputnik he played “space guitar” my maybe its that 😉 he always used to play a Thunderbird in the Original generation X and when he played with Sisters of Mercy.
