With the Sandberg California Nighthawk Plus TM5 Copper Satin , the iconic Braunschweig bass company presents a five-string electric bass that knows how to convince with first-class heavy sounds! The alder body and maple neck in combination with Sandberg Black Label pickups promise a powerful sound that is perfect for fat rock and metal grooves.
Under the satin Copper finish of the Sandberg California Nighthawk Plus TM5 Copper Satin is a classic alder body connected to the maple neck and ebony fretboard with six screws . This combination promises a fat basic sound with crisp attack and even sustain, providing the perfect foundation for cleanly articulated grooves. These grooves will flow easily from the fingers on the comfortable "C" neck profile .
The electrical sound conversion of the Sandberg California Nighthawk Plus TM5 Copper Satin is handled by two Sandberg Black Label Series pickups , a single-coil in the middle position and a humbucker at the bridge . They allow the 5-string electric bass to deliver versatile rock sounds ranging from gnarled, aggressive mid-growl with the high assertiveness of the humbucker to the abyssal, yet transparent bass foundation of the single coil. The humbucker can also be split via the split switch for authentic single-coil sounds, whereas the musically tuned 2-band EQ allows precise adjustments of the timbre.
High-quality hardware in matte black rounds off the Sandberg California Nighthawk Plus TM5 Copper Satin equipment harmoniously. The large aluminium pickguard with its brushed Hairline surface blends perfectly into the overall picture and also serves as the carrier for the middle pickup and all the electronics. Furthermore the Sandberg Bridge 5 contributes to the distinctive sound of the bass through its solid construction, whereas Sandberg tuners keep the tuning precise even when played energetically.
