Sound Pure's Take
Thunder-berg? Sand-bird? No matter what you call it, this has got to be one our favorite basses from Sandberg Guitars! The soft-aged custom gray finish looks beautiful; nearly like a decades-faded Sonic Blue. The Lollar Thunderbird pickups are warm, full of grit and growl, and take this J-style instrument to another sonic level. The neck sound is big, round, and in your face. The bridge pickup has cut, clarity, and just a bit of mid focused quack for funky fingerstyle or cutting through the mix. As only one of three available in the US, this won't last long!
