I used to have a jazz bass with EMG's and I miss it badly... the pickups in that really made a difference. I also had a Fernandes P-Bass with EMG's before that and that was a pretty decent upgrade also.

Another MM owner..and I thought I was the only one in the flippin' country who thought they sounded (and looked) superb. Mine's bubinga faced. Steve[/quote] Wow - not only that but both the MM owners in the country are called Steve lol. I only just noticed my spelling mistake in the original post too..... The Bubinga's are beautiful also....

Can't go wring with Sandbergs in my opinion - here's one of mine..... [attachment=37792:IMG_1213.JPG] [attachment=37793:IMG_1214.JPG] [attachment=37794:IMG_1216.JPG]

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='675732' date='Dec 6 2009, 02:44 PM']That's a seriously nice looking bass. Is it one of the Panther range? I've always had a thing for Sandbergs, but never had one yet...[/quote] Thanks - glad you like it! It's actually the same body they use for the California JM's and PM's but with the different pickup configuration. They don't usually make em with maple boards either..... I can only say good things about sandbergs, every one I've tried has been killer - I've got 2 now and they do pretty much anything I need....gotta save up and get a fretless though....

Hi All, Just thought i'd post some pics (even though they don't do it justice) of my new Sandberg - she is absolutely gorgeous and a joy to play.....think I'll need another one pretty soon!

[quote name='Musicman20' post='615905' date='Oct 3 2009, 06:06 PM']If they make a higher wattage version i'd be interested. The TC I tested was excellent, very well built. I just want a few extra watts.[/quote] How many more watts are you after? You could also link 2 heads if you wanted to. Cheers, Steve

Thanks for the comments guys.....appreciate the acceptance of drivel

Hi All, I've been hanging around this forum for quite some time ( I spend far too much time in the basses for sale area....) and just wanted to make my prescence a little more official. I've been playing bass for about 12 years now and have been in several bands here and in Australia where I lived previously for 18 years. I love the instrument and all sorts of music from jazz to death metal and have played most on bass or on drums (my former instrument). I've done a fair bit of musical training and nearly completed my jazz degree on drums but had to find a way to earn some money in amongst all the fun...... Currently I own a Yamaha BB604 / Tune TWB6 and shortly I will be getting myself a Sandberg JM5 - then I will get rid of the 604 even though I love it and we've been through some hard times together..... Now I live in London, do a fair bit of recording in my home studio and work for TC Electronic as their European MI sales manager which means I get to use the amps we have made. Even without being a part of the company I would have to say they are fantastic. I am still looking for the right band project at the moment as work has taken up most of my time for the last 2 years...anyone need something which I might be interested in? Looking forward to being involved in this forum a bit more and hopefully buying some of the basses that keep giving me GAS in the marketplace..... Cheers for now! Steve
