Product information - SANDBERG California VT4 MN Metallic Red Hardcore Aged Reserve

Four-string electric bass with alder body, Delano pickups and active 2-band EQ, including gig bag

The Sandberg California VT4 MN Metallic Red Hardcore Aged Reserve is a classically designed electric bass with a versatile sound spectrum and an authentic vintage touch. The Brunswick bass builders use alder for the body and maple for the neck, while Delano split coil and single coil pickups, along with the active 2-band EQ capture and colour the sound. Naturally the Sandberg California VT4 MN Metallic Red Hardcore Aged Reserve is equipped with in-house hardware consisting of the Sandberg Bridge 4 and precise Sandberg Machine Heads. In addition, the detailed handcrafted Hardcore Aged Reserve finish has the authentic look of an instrument that has been played on stage for decades.

4-string bass featuring a tried and tested construction and excellent playability

The construction of the Sandberg California VT4 MN Metallic Red Hardcore Aged Reserve follows the proven specifications of an electric bass. The Brunswick bass builders manufacture the body from thermally treated alder, while the neck is made of maple and screwed sixfold to the body. Accordingly, when played dry, the bass convinces with a bright primary tone, whose nimble sound development and even sustain provide the perfect basis for driving bass lines. The neck has a comfortably shaped "C" profile and a flat fretboard radius, leaving enough space for the strings to be played with ease.

SANDBERG California VT4 MN Metallic Red Hardcore Aged Reserve Body
Delano pickups with fat steel poles give the Sandberg California VT4 a versatile sound with natural vintage character.

Split Coil and Single Coil for versatile sounds

The electrical sound conversion of the Sandberg California VT4 is accomplished by a Delano T-Style single coil at the bridge and a Delano V-Style split coil in the middle position. Thanks to these two, this 4-string delivers a wide range of classic bass sounds with clearly audible vintage nuances, ranging from the wiry, transparent assertive tone of the single coil to the growling low-middle thrust of the split coil. The fat steel poles of the pickups give the sound a smooth attack and a soft, natural compression that carries every groove. To further adjust the sound character, an active 2-band EQ is provided, whose excellent tuning always promises musical sound experiences, even at extreme settings.

SANDBERG California VT4 MN Metallic Red Hardcore Aged Reserve Headstock
Sandberg Machine Heads provide a high level of tuning stability on the headstock of the Sandberg California VT4.

Sandberg hardware

High quality Sandberg hardware completes the features of the Sandberg California VT4 The bridge used is the solidly built Sandberg Bridge 4, whose mass has a positive effect on the sustain and sound development of the four-string. Its three-dimensionally adjustable string saddles allow for perfect adjustment of intonation and string position as well as the adjustment of the string spacing. At the head plate the strings are guided over the zero fret and nut before they are held by the light Sandberg Machine Heads. These convince with their precise operation, which promises precise and especially stable tuning.
