SANDBERG BASIC 5 Something has taken my eye and applying the "one out before one in rule", am seeing if there is any interest in my Sandberg Basic 5 It is in good condition, finished in Blueburst, and with a maple fingerboard. The odd "ding" as this really a players bass. it was recently set up by Steve Robinson and a new set of Elites fitted. It is the version with the Noll 3-band pre-amp, (Cut/Boost on Bass/Middle/Treble), and has a Coil Tap switch fitted allowing the Delano MM pick-up to be set either Series/Parallel or Single Coil. The Vol control has "Pull for Passive" option, invaluable if your battery dies mid gig. It has a very defined, clear sound and does the typical Stingray sound really well. Set up with a low action, and the neck is the nicest one I have ever played. The build quality is excellent! Looking for £495 for it. If the Bass I am interested in sells, I will probably withdraw this. It is such a dream to play. Cheers, Stuart [attachment=38953:Sandberg_Basic_1.JPG][attachment=38954:Sandberg_Basic_2.JPG][attachment=38955:Sand berg_Basic_4.JPG]

"This bass isn't designed to have a low action"
BassBunny replied to Mokl's topic in General Discussion
As they say "No good turn goes unpunished". The guy is an idiot and you obviously know your stuff. I think the other shop deserves to be named. The funny thing is a couple of friends of mine had a Music Shop in Manchester in the 70's & 80's and I was talking to them about trying to get hold of an old Harmony Guit@r. They both said "Why"? In those days the quality was bad and you either got a good one or a Dog. These day's you can buy far better quality for less money. To say a modern day instrument has deliberately been built to emulate an old one is utter crap.... -
[quote name='solo4652' post='688609' date='Dec 18 2009, 06:20 PM']What is the tone knob for on the bass? Doesn't seem to do much at all.[/quote] Steve the "tone" control is purely a Bass or is it Treble "cut". As it's passive you can't boost anything.

ALL SOLD EXCEPT Small knobs

Like RichardH I was a bit confused with the report. I have a pair of the original Zoot 112's, (and recently added a Zoot 115 Compact), which I believe were the first ones Mike built. Amazingly light, one in each hand setting up, job done. I love them and I know how much care and atttention Mike puts into his products. I saw the PC Cabs when I picked the Compact up and they are fabulous. At the end of the day if it looks right and sounds right, it's right. I have been completely GAS free regarding my Amp set-up for 2 years now and the biggest complement I got was from the Guitarist of the Rock Band I played in who said the Zoot's were "awesome". Not often guitarists hand out compliments.....

[quote name='martinbass7750' post='678948' date='Dec 9 2009, 12:01 PM']Oh - they seem to go for nearly new money on eBay so I'd buy new.[/quote] Last pair of RCF 310A's I spotted on e-Bay went for £590 including covers. The going rate now seems nearer the £800 mark for new ones.

[quote name='Rayman' post='674364' date='Dec 4 2009, 05:33 PM']Ged Green in Cheadle or Steve Robinson (manchesterguitartech) in Sale, both recommended.[/quote] +1 for Steve and Ged. Used them both and they do great work.

[quote name='niceguyhomer' post='674288' date='Dec 4 2009, 04:24 PM']Thanks Dave but to be honest I'm dreading it. We did a gig last night in a trendy cocktail establishment in Manchester and we played really well but the audience didn't get it at all.[/quote] Damn, I was in Manchester on Thursday night Al. Would have come and seen you if i'd known. Where were you at?

Have a look at Steve robinson's web-site, [url="http://www.manchesterguitartech.co.uk/"]http://www.manchesterguitartech.co.uk/[/url] There are some examples of the work he has done on scrapes and dings. I can recommend him. He has done som egreat work for me.

Al, Just Go For It. The person who booked you obviously liked what they saw/heard and they know the target audience. If they are having a full on DJ as well, maybe the idea is they want a bit of "Chill Out" time as well. Either that or you're on while they serve the meal/buffet You know what Nick would say.......

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='651666' date='Nov 11 2009, 02:50 PM']Never heard of the other guy, but he's very melodic when he gets going [/quote] He is one of the visting members at ICMP and has a regular Bass Technique column in Bass Guitar Magazine. He played BassDay in Manchester last year and is an awesome player.
