So, here is my Sandberg bass. It's a custom shop, I bought it today, and it's used. Lovely instrument that is. It is a JM5 model (now TM5), but instead of the MM-style humbucker and jazz pickup combo, it is a MM-stlye and precision pickup combo. I absolutely love the bass, you can really achieve awesome diversity in regards to tone. Playing the bass is really relaxed, the best bass I had so far.

Also, the metallic candy apple red finish with the black pickguard is an eye-catcher.

Wait till you put a white pearloid on it, you won't be able to look anywhere else. I know, I did that to my P bass and she's so gorgeous... But u have to like that color and effect texture it produces for sure.
 
The website's configurator page has me considering going deep into debt. Whoa, momma.

Oh boy, getting a custom shop will cost you. If you live in Germany, you can go to Sandberg directly and get the bass from the owner :)

But, luckily for you, it probably wouldn't be THAT much more expensive for you as getting it in the Euro-Zone, due to a low Euro-Dollar-balance. :)
