jbn4001 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Has anyone played a Sandberg five string California Jazz bass? If so, what was the neck like.. was it narrow like a Stingray 5 or Ibanez 5? ie 17.5mm string spacing or less and in addition does it sound anything like a passive Jazz. If not I assume I could achieve that by putting passive single coils in and no pre amp. I ask as someone on a mission to get a Jazz 5 string with the above or narrower spacing - ala Stingray 5. Thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
