Sandberg Electra VS4

Electra are the budget versions of these wonderful basses - hand selected components by Korean manufactures,  but then assembled and designed by Sandberg Guitars in Germany. It has a jazz width (37mm) neck which is incredibly comfortable to play, zero fret and can easily get a lovely low action. There are a couple of upgrades - the addition of Sandberg's own super light tuners which are incredibly smooth and have knocked the weight down to just under 8 lbs, great balance on a strap or seated. The preamp now has active/ passive bypass, with a passive tone control that works in active and passive mode. The original 2 band bass and treble from the preamp have been moved to a stacked knob.

It has Sandberg's own P pickup which is great, no need to upgrade this at all! There's a 3D printed thumb rest which can be easily removed without damage to the bass.
