Club Sandberg (part 2)

[nitrobrother]

Help me out here, guys. I tried to find something to indicate what I have (purchased a few years ago) but all the papers I got from the dealer only say "Sandberg fretless bass". I'm thinking of letting this one go since I don't play it much. What is it?

 

[Cuzzie]

If you want exact specs email Sandberg the serial number

Normally get back within a week with all you need

Sandberg Classic Booster fretless

 

[Plastalmonus]

Probably time for me to officially join this club.

I bought an Electra VS a few months ago as an alternative to a Mexican Fender P Bass and man was I impressed. So impressed that I have gone out and picked up a VM4 and VM5. The VM4 I got yesterday however I am waiting on having the VM5 delivered.

So far I am hugely impressed with the VM4. It just stands out and is much bolder than the Electra. I haven't yet managed to get it to mimic my Stingray 5H however I can get 90% of the way there. Such a versatile bass all round.

VM5:

Of course I am still keeping the Electra. Always good to have a backup

I would say I was jealous but it’s not a strong enough word to convey my feelings!

Congrats buddy

That is pretty darn sweet, congrats. Looking forward to your thoughts on the Darkglass circuit.

Holy smokes. Congrats man! Let us know how you like it. I’ve been seeing this one all over Facebook lately.

It will just be a matter of time.
I'm not much of a club joiner but this would be the 2nd exception.
Is their some sort of ritual or a TB'er to ask?
If it's a one club number rule, I can drop the Spector thing in a heart beat...

No, no "one club rule, you can be in as many clubs as you like. The only rule is that you own a Sandberg at the time of joining the club and that you post pictures, preferably of the front and back of the bass.

What is it?

Sandberg Classic Booster fretless

This or a "Bullet Booster fretless" (might be a "Bullet" when the paperworks only says "Sandberg")

They changed the name from Bullet to Classic when they started to sell the "California" models in the US.

You know why.

Which version of Panther pickup selection and electronic lay out do you like best? Single Jazz Pickups or Soap bar pickup (sound aside, just aesthetics)? Black or Gold? Smiley Face knobs or Mix Placed knobs?

Interesting Fact. The new San Remo colour is a direct copy of the UK Distributors BMW car. Apparently they asked Holger to copy it and he did.... Got to love Sandberg!!!

Hi TB24

The soaps are what make it a Panther (IMO)

And I like black Panthers!
