Holy crap, how did I not know they did this? Maaaaaaan, now I'm going to go broke!!!

I’d say it’s worth a shot, just keep the original electronics in case you ever decided to sell it. I have tried Bart, Aguilar, and Nordstrand preamps. They are all good, but the Nordstrand is my favorite. I have it in a Fender custom shop custom classic jazz bass. I use the 3b-2a preamp...

I have a Sandberg VM4 and you will pry it from my cold dead hands. It is crazy light and somehow sustains longer than my neck thru basses. I liked it so much that I bought a TT (jazz version) with the older Delano pickups and pre. I hated it, could not play more than 3 songs on a gig with it...

Man, that’s a cool color!! Congrats on the mod and what looks like a kick azz bass!!!!! By the way - my #1 is an S/H Sterling so I get it…..

Beautiful bass.

Is the fretboard roasted maple as well or is it pau ferro?

Man, that looks great!!! I’d buy one if they made it.

looks good - what color is that? Some kind of charcoal metallic???

Nice bass work on that song!! Is that your Mid 80's L1000 on the recording?

Do you know the nut width on this bass?

Super cool bass, I absolutely love ebony boards. I did not know they would engrave something for you. That awesome touch just puts this bass over the top. Congrats on a beautiful, unique, and personal bass. Really cool!!

Buddy Guy is a super cool dude. Only famous person I ever met back in 1998. Saw him a few years ago at a Jimmy Hendrix tribute show with multiple artists, and at 70+ years old, he was one of most energetic guitarists in the show. Totally awesome.

Does this have stock fender jazz bass pickups in it?

That is beautiful and unique. GLWTS!

My Sandberg VM4 has become my #1 without dispute. I've been through probably 35 basses and kept 6 of them. It is - for me - the best bass I've ever had. That said, like all instrument manufacturers not all of them are the same. I have found that I like the Sandberg pre and pickups better...
