Thanks 🙏 The pick up is Sandberg's own power split coil. Sounds fantastic in passive and active.

Hey All, Picked up my first Sandberg this weekend. 2008 California Heavy aged VS4.

Hey All, So I picked up first Sandberg this weekend. A 2008 California VS4 Heavy Aged.

I like the look of these, but honestly the pricing is quite a bit above HB offering of similar spec, ime JB-62C for example.. I'm interested to see if they are worth double a Harley Benton JB-62 or 50% more than the 35th anniversary edition. These basses retail around £350 give or take. Anyone took the plunge and bought one?

Thanks for the replies guys.

Already been down that route, only info they could give was a manufacturing date of 1976.

Anyone able to help identify these, they come from a 2X15 cab made by Roost back in the day. Can't seem to find any info on them.

I know my old church was basically using tripod mounted DSLR cameras for this.. worked well and really decent quality. Not as optimal as a PTZ camera, but it's another route.

Fair play, I have also had the same thoughts... I think the thing with this model is that it sits in between some better value models... A bit more money gets you Gotah tuners for example.. like I say QC at this price point can very variable. I think overall though HB stuff is awesome value for money. Out of interest what was the cheaper bass you played that was better?

I'm also returning mine, needs fret levelling. It's neck divey but you know for the price you can't expect the same level of QC or components as Fender or Sire et al. Sometimes you will get a duffer most often it will be fine. I'm not complaining about neck dive ast these prices points.

Something that can be mitigated to some extent with a well padded strap.

Mentioning no names... Cough.. Gold Foil Cough Cough....
