The Sandberg California TM5 RW Gold High-Gloss is a five-string electric bass with a proven wooden base and powerful Delano pickups that delivers versatile sounds with a vocal vintage note.
Classic Sounds
For the construction of the Sandberg California TM5 RW Gold High gloss, the Brunswick Company relies on proven woods. The body is made of Alder; while the six fold screwed neck is made of Maple and carries a Rosewood fretboard. Accordingly, the 5-string has a fat primary sound with rich attack and even sustain, which also integrates the low B-string with precise articulation into the sound. The pleasantly shaped "C" neck profile, on which even complex grooves can easily get out of your fingers and invite you to play the electric bass, also ensures comfortable playing comfort.
Delano Pick-Ups
The pickups of the Sandberg California TM5 RW Gold High-Gloss come from Delano and convince with their versatile sound spectrum, whose pleasant vintage nuances are always recognizable. A wide spectrum of different sound nuances can be called up via the blend control, ranging from the rich, assertive low end thrust of the Delano M-style humbucker close to the bridge to the bold, yet transparent sound of the Delano T-style single coil. The active 2-band tone control and the split switch for the humbucker are also available for further sound adjustment, allowing authentic single coil sounds to be called up.
Sandberg Hardware
High-quality hardware from our own company completes the equipment of the Sandberg California TM5 Gold High gloss. The strings on the bridge are held by the Sandberg Bridge 5, whose massive construction contributes significantly to the even sound of the five-string. The three-dimensional adjustability also guarantees perfect adjustment of intonation and string position. At the headstock, the strings are led via zero fret and saddle to the indestructible Sandberg Machine Heads, which guarantee a reliable tuning of the bass guitar.
