ash Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 (edited) Here's my Sandberg JJ5 in a rather fetching fiesta red. Its a light relic with tasteful 'wear', it has active delano pickups and circuitry. A nice preamp switching between active/passive. Its an older 'custom shop' model and has a 34" scale but a great tight B and killer neck. Action is low and the bass is balanced and light. It comes with gig bag and allen key. Its a gorgeous bass that I traded recently for a JJ5 Californian with a 35" scale - I prefer the 34'' scale. Well I'd like to sell or trade this simply because I cannot justify having such a beautiful pro level instrument when I've virtually stopped playing 5 strings so much and need a cheaper 5 for recording only. Price wise I'm looking at around 670, trade wise I'm looking for a Status Groove 5, Status wooden neck 5 or Energy or T Bass 4 or 5(plus cash my way). I'm always looking for Gibson Grabbers vintage or reissues or Overwater J types (cash your way for the right one). Its a lovely bass and plays and looks fabulous (and very festive!!!!). Will post if necessary at buyer's cost.

ThomBassmonkey Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 Nah, sorry. If I ever want to get rid of it, I'll let you know and you can have it for the same price I payed for it. I'm very happy with it though and don't have any intentions of moving it on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
