The t-shirt is consistent with the message on the screen, too.
Ha! The Roku seems to drop from our wifi periodically. I think it's the uverse access point. I need to get a separate router/gateway.
I managed to glitch the Sandberg configurator to remove the pickguard on the matte brownburst 48 that Sandberg is currently building for me. What do you think? I kinda like the look without pickguard.

Love it without the pick guard. It’s meant to be. Enjoy!
Yes, I think it is meant to be. I'll post photos when it arrives.
I ordered a Sandberg VM4 in May. I received it in September. Only last week I realised that when in passive mode, the knob that usually controls the treble on the 2-band EQ acts as a passive tone control.
I completely missed that previously.
I wonder how many people failed to notice that like me...

The TB Gods smiled and offered up a California TT SL for sale. I snapped it up. Can't wait to get it!
The NEW Electra VS4 in the picture had to go to the repair shop. When I plugged it in for the first time I noticed immediately that the volume knob does not work. It is wide open. Chicago Music Exchange is going to reimburse me to have a local luthier take a look at it. They didn't have another one to ship out.
I'm hoping that is what it is. I don't have a picture of the control cavity. The bass is at the shop. It will be there until the end of the week.
Looks awesome without the pickguard, building a nice collection there, congrats
Hi to all, Happy New Year 2020. 
I have a Sandberg Bullet 5 strings Serial number 644. The electronics is "Sandberg made by Scitus". It has some sound issues now.
Do anyone have this particular circuit for sale. Can you please tell me what preamps are being used in Sandberg's bass nowadays?
Thank you.
Regards,
Peter

(Sorry, can't help with the question about the electronics.)

Hi Peter,
what exactly is the problem?
Is the tube jack still tight enough?
Best,
Mike
Hi Mike,
The tube jack is still tight. The problem is that there are no sound coming out. Recently the battery was keeping draining, two 9V for two weeks as it lasted three months before.
As i know it will be difficult for me to find the same circuit so i am willing to buy another preamp from Sandberg to replace the one that i have.
