Guest Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Bass called, Sound of Sweden. [b][b]Barnacle Bob, exactly![/b][/b] Edited May 3, 2012 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boogie Man Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Yes and No! The company´s name who sold them was infact " Sound of Sweden " if i remeber it corectly. They where sold in the mid 80´s for a short period before the company went out of buissines. It was called Jonas Hellborg model and of Italian make... I think it will be very hard to find one today since it was not too many sold, maybe only 100 or something. cheers from Sweden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassTractor Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 From Hellborg's website: [color=#000000]"Sound of Sweden" was the name of a brand Jonas created with some friends in order to produce the Jonas Hellborg bass in '82-'84.[/color] [color=#000000]He also created an amplifier line, in partnership FBT, based in Recanati, Italy. It was the first biamped bass amplifier, in which each cabinet had its own power amp - one for the 15" and one for the 2x12".[/color] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The friends where infact the company Sound of Sweden as i recall it, and the same company where the importers for Aria in Sweden. My misstake sorry!
