Traditional construction for the crisp sound
The body of the SandbergCalifornia TT4 Passive MN 3-Tone Sunburst Highgloss is made of alder, while the six-screw neck is made of maple with a maple fingerboard.

With its comfortably designed "C" profile, the neck nestles in the hand when playing electric bass, so that even complex bass lines can be realized with ease on the slim fretboard. Here 22 frets offer the usual tonal range.
Two Sandberg Alnico single-coil pickups with classic passive electronics give the Sandberg California TT4 Passive great tonal variety.

Accordingly, the California TT4 passive covers a wide range of classic tonal nuances, making it the perfect all-rounder for pop, rock, Blues and not least jazz.
With their low weight, the precisely acting Sandberg tuners prevent top-heaviness.
Sophisticated Hardware from our own house
The hardware of the Sandberg California TT4 Passive MN 3-Tone Sunburst Highgloss comes from our own house and presents itself with well thought-out functionality. The solidly built Sandberg Bridge 4 ensures an even tone and sustain development, and at the same time, thanks to the three-dimensionally adjustable tailpiece, not only the intonation and string action can be perfectly adjusted, but also the string spacing can be adjusted to personal taste. At the headstock, the strings run over the zero fret and saddle to the Sandberg tuners, which convince with absolute tuning stability and counteract head heaviness due to their low weight.
