Oooh, I should look into that pre-amp. Do you have more information about it?

Were you able to wire it in such a way as to retain the passive tone control with in passive mode?
Yes. Everything stayed the same, except stock Glock 2 EQ replaced with Tone Capsule 3EQ.
Thank you
Very cool. Sorry one more question, assuming you kept the 4 knob layout, did you go with a bass control and a concentric knob control for the mids? If so, which control got the passive tone?
Awesome thanks for posting this. I wonder if the switch could be wired to split the MM into the back half only…?
That’s a good looking bass! CongratsHi everybody!
I’m back to Sandberg again! I’ve traded my other bass and I am no the owner of a Sandberg VM4 Walnut! It only weighs 3.33 kilograms and that is one of the main reasons I bought it! The body is made out of Mahogany and the top finder is walnut! Headstock is also a fineer of walnut. Neck is made of maple!! I’m very happy with it!!

Someone correct me if I'm wrong: the bass being played in Slash's video for "Killing Floor" is a Sandberg.

Not sure about the bass. But these old guys can rock. I'm not a huge fan of blues, but love this one. How do I not know who Brian Johnson is????

I use a Serek bag for my Reverend Sentinel and Nordy Cat - it's bulletproof and fits 'em like a glove. They're both about 41-42" stem to stern.
Gorgeous!!!Hi everybody!
