Oldman Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) This was/is my dream bass, Black, Black and DR Black Beauty Strings.Ā IāllĀ post actual snaps tomorrow, 12Ā months old, Immaculate no dingaling dongs, it looks the part. Only reason I might move it on is obvious really, no gigs, old getting older, corvid jobby and Iām considering regressing to 34ā scale. Bought from these people after stumbling on the Bass whilst browsing. https://m.musik-produktiv.com/gb/sandberg-california-vm2-darkhawk-5-bkb.html Face to face transaction preferred, Iāll go half way not happy to post if I do itās UK only. Thanks for looking Edited September 2, 2020 by Oldman 1

hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 It does look the business. If I was looking for another 5āer, Iād be tempted. GLWTS š Ā
hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 Is that switch as it says, a pick-up selector, or does it split the coils?
Oldman Posted August 30, 2020 Author Posted August 30, 2020 I think it splits the coils, Iāll check.

hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 Yes, that's what made me ask as you also have a blend control in the line above.

Cuzzie Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 The switch selector merely says blend. How many positions? What is it blending, single coils/both coils/each pick up/outside or inside coils etc
Oldman Posted August 30, 2020 Author Posted August 30, 2020 Iām just the messenger, I really havenāt a feckinā clue, Bridge pup, both, neck, kettle on/off. š„ŗ 1
Tankdave Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 (edited) The switch switches both pickups to single coil or humbucker mode. Found the answer in a reviewĀ š Edited August 30, 2020 by Tankdave 2

Oldman Posted August 31, 2020 Author Posted August 31, 2020 1 hour ago, Cuzzie said: Oh, are you selling for someone else? Oh, no, itās my bass, I just donāt really pay attention to the minutia of single, double, split coil dumbuckers with switches, I did find the mid frequency knob useful. I just do bass, not techie stuff, is all.Ā Its a feeler, itās my main bass, Iām not gigging and unlikely to be,Ā maybe never. Whilst Ā Itās sat sittinā,Ā Iām thinkin, use my Thumb, BEAD it, jobs a good un hence the feeler. Ā
Oldman Posted September 2, 2020 Author Posted September 2, 2020 Canāt do it, itās staying, I searched for this type of Fender style bass, I fancied Sandberg, stumbled on it, it is superb. Thats it. Thanks for looking guys š 1
