E-Bass mit zwei Delano T-Style Single-Coils und aktiver 2-Band-Klangregelung, inklusive Gigbag
The Sandberg California TT4 PF Gold Highgloss w/ Matching Headstock from the Brunswick based company is a classically built electric bass with versatile sound and a harmonious modern vintage design. This four-string bass features an alder body and a six-bolt maple neck with pau ferro fretboard, while two Delano JMVC pickups and an active 2-band EQ take care of the electric sound conversion.
The Sandberg California TT4 PF Gold Highgloss w/ Matching Headstock convinces with classic design and versatile sounds.
The six-fold screw connection of neck and body is typical for Sandberg and promotes an even tone development.
Traditionelle Bauweise für den knackigen Sound
The body of the California TT4 PF Gold Highgloss w/ Matching Headstock is made of alder, whereas the six-bolt neck and fretboard are made of maple and Pau Ferro. Accordingly, this 4-string electric bass convinces with a gaudy base sound, whose precise sound development and long sustain provide the perfect basis for every style of music. With its comfortably designed "C" profile, the neck nestles into the hand when playing the electric bass, so that even complex bass lines can be realized with ease on the slim fretboard.
Two Delano JMVC single-coil pickups and the active 2-band equalizer give the Sandberg California TT4 sonic diversity.
Versatile sounds thanks to Delano single-coils
The Sandberg California TT4 PF Gold Highgloss uses two passive Delano JMVC single-coils which provide a versatile sound image with an audible vintage touch. The bridge pickup delivers a wiry sound, which becomes apparent in the band sound with the assertiveness of its concise mids, whereas the pickup in middle position with its juicy bass foundation and clear treble pushes every groove into the pit of your stomach. The blend control allows you to mix pickups for a rich and varied bass sound. Furthermore both pickups have a natural, pleasantly manageable compression thanks to the exposed, fat pole pieces. To further adjust the tones, there is a musically tuned 2-band EQ, which can be bypassed if necessary using the push/pull switch in the volume control for an authentic passive sound.
With their low weight, the precisely working Sandberg Machine Heads prevent top-heaviness.
Sophisticated hardware developed in-house
The hardware equipment of the Sandberg California TT4 PF Gold Highgloss w/ Matching Headstock has been developed in-house and presents itself with well thought-out functionality. The solidly built Sandberg Bridge ensures an even tone and sustain development, while the three-dimensionally adjustable string saddles not only allow the intonation and string position to be perfectly adjusted, but also the string spacing to suit personal taste. At the head plate the strings run over the zero fret and nut to the Sandberg Machine Heads, which convince with absolute tuning stability and counteract top-heaviness due to their low weight.
