Looking to find a new home for my Sandberg California VM4! I purchased this bass brand new from Musik Productiv at the beginning of the pandemic (link to original Reverb listing below). My experience with this bass has been excellent. It is extremely comfortable and easy to play, and has a nice resonance to it when played anywhere on the neck. The bass was plek'ed when it was manufactured, so the action can be set very low if needed. Comes with original gig bag, original strings, and info booklet. The condition is almost perfect, but there are a few minor bruises on the bottom of the body as well as a tiny chip near the top of the body (shown in photos).
Description from original listing:
Sandberg stands for quality, sound and exclusivity in the area of bass construction. Holger Stonjek, owner of Sandberg, gets hands on with his basses himself, especially the neck shaping he performs with attention to detail. All basses from Holger are equipped with Glockenklang electronics. All Sandberg employees have many years of experience in bass construction. It is not an exaggeration to say that these basses have an extraordinary quality, inimitable sound and a unique playability. The basses shown here are unfortunately only a small part of the product line of Sandberg basses. We have the possibility to offer each bass player his individual (custom) bass. So, it's worth checking them out and talking to us about your personal bass. The California series offers traditional body shapes combined with modern electronics. The result is a Bass which is very difficult to beat in terms of quality, sound and playability in this price class.
