Bass guitar for all musical styles
The Sandberg California VM4 EB Black Satin w/ Matching Headstock from the Brunswick bass forge convinces with an extensive sound spectrum for all music styles thanks to variable pickup equipment and active electronics, while the classic construction with ash body and bolt-on maple neck offers a high playability.
Classically constructed four-stringer
For the construction of the California VM4, the Brunswick bass builders rely on tried and true ingredients, crafting the instrument's body from ash and neck from maple with an ebonyfingerboard. In conjunction with the six-way bolt-on construction of the body, the traditional woods deliver a resonance-friendly basic sound that, with nimble Attack, provides the perfect foundation for groovy riffs and crisp slaps. Here, the comfortable C-profile of the neck ensures a soft playability of the entire bass guitar.
Versatile Sandberg pickups and active electronics
As pickup on the California VM4 Bass in-house Sandberg pickups are used, with which the Bass covers a wide sound spectrum. Thus, the Sandberg split coil positioned in the middle convinces thanks to fat pole pieces with a slightly compressed tone, whose powerful bass foundation and high transparency present every groove with noble articulation. In contrast, the Sandberg power humbucker at the bridge delivers an aggressive sound that makes every note played palpable in the pit of your stomach with dry punch. An active 2-band tone control is also available to further customize the sound.
Sandberg Hardware
High-quality SandbergHardware completes the features of the California VM4 EB Black Satin w/ Matching Headstock electric bass from Sandberg. The solidly built Sandberg Bridge 4 contributes significantly to the even Sustain of the electric bass and also guarantees perfect intonation and string action due to its three-dimensional adjustability. At the headstock, the strings are guided via a zero fret to the creamy running Sandberg Machine Heads, which enable precise and reliable tuning for long E-Bass playing.
