{"product_id":"863542","title":"sandberg USED Forty Eight Bass 5-string (Black Burst)","description":"Bargain second-hand items have arrived.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Founded in Germany in 1986, Sandberg is a brand whose user list includes a wide range of musicians, from bassists in HR\/HM bands to jazz\/fusion bassists and studio musicians. In addition to its highly original designs and hardware, the natural, deep tone resulting from the handcrafted work of skilled builders is also popular in Japan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This time, we have received a 5-string model of the uniquely shaped Forty-Eight. The large body, modeled after famous models, is quite striking. Despite its large, unusual shape, the design doesn't make it uncomfortable to hold, which shows the keen eye of a long-established brand. The wood choices are ash body\/maple neck\/ebony fingerboard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The electronics feature in-house manufactured pickups and preamps, delivering a fat, impactful sound that perfectly complements the body shape. Furthermore, the front and rear pickups can be coil-tapped independently. Pulling the volume knob allows for passive operation, offering a versatile approach despite the simple controls.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e While there are signs of use such as dents and buckle marks, this guitar is in player's condition with no operational issues in the neck or electronics. The truss rod and frets are also in good condition, and the guitar remains in a very playable state. Although it originally had a clear pickguard, it is currently missing the screws. This brand is becoming increasingly rare, and the Forty-Eight model is even rarer. Furthermore, as a 5-string guitar with a unique shape, it is a valuable option. Don't miss this opportunity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Weight: ≈4.65kg\u003cbr\u003e S\/N: #31006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck: 6 bolted \/ canadian hardrock maple\u003cbr\u003e Fretboard: 22 frets \/ Ebony\u003cbr\u003e Scale: 35 inch scale\u003cbr\u003e Finish: matt \/ european ash body\u003cbr\u003e Hardware: sandberg\u003cbr\u003e Pickup: sandberg power humbucker, metal covers\u003cbr\u003e Preamp: sandberg 2-band, active\/passive, passive tone control\u003cbr\u003e Fingerboard radius: 14 inches\u003cbr\u003e Width zero fret: 45 mm\u003cbr\u003e Thickness 1st fret: 20 mm\u003cbr\u003e Width at 22nd Fret: 73 mm\u003cbr\u003e Bridge string spacing: 18 to 19.5 mm\u003cbr\u003e Fret size: 2.5 mm\u003cbr\u003e Neck profile: c-shape","brand":"sandberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43676749463665,"sku":"863542","price":1823.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/863542_01.jpg?v=1784630531","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/fr\/products\/863542","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
