i'd kill for that bass Heres mine - California JM4 in Cherry Sunburst. Sorry for the rubbish pictures, I lost my camera and had to take them on my mobile phone!
By the way, have any of you got straplocks on yours, as I cant seem to find any which fit!
I use the Dunlop one's on my Sandberg California JM4, they fit great!
Nice bass by the way! I don't think I've seen many without dot fret markers.
hahahha, sorry guys but i bought that sandberg bass on ebay. Anyone want to make an offer?
It'l be really hard, because im really loving the bass
Ill post some photos soon
and also, can i join the club!
bass: sandberg custom
Welcome Elykoko!
You know? I really had the feeling that I'll see this special Sandberg again!
All congratulation on the win! It must be amazing. Do you have any further informations on it? When it's built and so on...
I feel honored to give you the nr. 45!
Enjoy!
Update on the members list:
i have a strap with a schaller straplock (they came with my status) and it popped straight on my sandberg
Hey guys, i was wondering, do the sandbergs which have Block inlay necks, do these necks have binding on the side of the neck? like on fender block inlay necks?
Cheers guys!
Cheers guys!
Mine doesn't!
If you look at the photo of the Bass that Premek posted a while ago (maple neck with black block inlays it doesn't have binding on the neck either.
I'm pretty sure the great guys at Sandberg would fit edge binding for you if you requested it.

Ah thanks Baker! i just have never had a bass with blocks and binding, (being Lefty) so i cant wait, i will speak to them!
Cheers!
I did just put you on, welcome! Number 46 is yours.
How are you enjoying that Umbo? It looks great. I haven't tried a Umbo yet.
Enjoy.

I picked up my first Sandberg last Thurday. I was doing some shopping for my work place in a music store and while i was waiting i tried one - and loved it. I had never played Sandberg before. I bought it. I just couldn't help myself.
It plays incredible nicely, but tomorrow i'll have a band rehearsing after which i know how it performs.
4-String California JM Natrure Highgloss #8967
I have some troubles posting a picture - i'll do that later!

Hi guys.
Im interested in getting a Sandberg so i guess this is the best place to ask.
I played a Blackburst California PM5 a few years a go and loved it, but got a Lakland instead.
Im now thinking of that PM5 again so have a couple of questions.
Firstly, how close to a P can it get with just the neck pup? Im not looking for authentic vintage P, just a nice thump and some good low mids.
And secondly, how long does the battery last and is it easy to change.
Thanks for any guidance.
