Sandberg Basic 5

I haven't been able to find any info on this bass anywhere, so I'm turning to you guys.

I play in a technical metal band, and I'm buying a new bass soon enough. I'm very interested in this bass, due to the looks and relatively cheap price.
If I'm going to go for this one, the essential specs would be a 35" neck with a rosewood board, the rest are just aesthethics (can't spell that). So does anyone here have a Basic 5 with 35" neck? Would love to hear what you're experience is with it.

This is my band:


Just so you can get an idea of what I do.
Also, the rest of the gear I use is pretty much Hartke cabs and top. Before that, there's a BOSS OD and noise gate, a Korg tuner and a MXR M80.

Thanks. :bassist:
