Sandberg forty eight 2015 Custom Instrument

Selling my Personal Forty Eight Custom Build Bass with several and unique Extras.

You can see and hear my Bass in the linked Youtube Video. Played by Tobin Esperante (Papa Roach). I met him at a show in Germany and he played my Bass for this YT-Video.

I used to be a Luthier at the Sandberg Guitars Factory in Braunschweig Germany. I started Playing in a Metal Band and due to we played our instruments in Dropped C Tuning it was Time to Build me a worthy Bass. It was also the Time, the first forty eight Basses where introduced by Sandberg Guitars. I fell in love with the shape and as I where able to Build, Paint and Assemble one my self, I decided, I couldn't take just the standard specs.

I Highlighted the Extras.

Specs:

• Body : two piece Alder
• Neck : Maple
• Fretboard : Maple with Black Binding and Black Block inlays
• Glow-in-the-dark side dots
• Colour Body: Soft aged Black Highgloss
• Colour Neck: Silver Sparkle with unique Doodle on the Back of the Headstock and outlined on the Front
• Special Decalls on the Headstock
• Vibration Treatment (Special extra at Sandberg)
• bridge : String Through Sandberg Black
• Tuner : Gotoh Res-O-Lite Black
• Pickup : four Sandberg Blacklabel T Pickups (J-Type) combined as Two Humbucker in nickel-plated Metal covers.
• Electronics : Aktive 9V Sandberg 2-Band EQ, two 3-way mini switches to split the Pickups so you can chose between 9 different PU combinations (Pic)
• Strings: Dunlop Stainless Steel 55-115 wich are perfect for the dropped C tuning. The sound is still accurate but the Strings does not feel wobbly (personal opinion)

The Bass comes in a Sandberg Forty Eight Gigbag
