Sandberg California II VM-5 5-String Electric Bass, Maple Fretboard, Padded Gig Bag - Blue Burst Matte Finish
Sandberg California II VM-5 5-String Electric Bass, Maple Fretboard, Padded Gig Bag - Blue Burst Matte Finish
Sandberg Guitars was founded back in 1986 by Holger Stonjek and Gerd Gorzelke. Since then, they have been producing hand-made instruments at the highest quality. This bass features Sandberg's newest version of the California body shape along with Sandberg pickups and preamp that Glockenklang helped them develop. The reverse-P pickup and MM-style bridge humbucker combine to provide anything from familiar vintage tones to uniquely modern and hi-fi sounds. This is an extraordinarily versatile bass.
