The Forty-Eight is a new design from Sandberg and definitely one of the coolest looking. The great thing is that it plays as good as it looks.
Nice weight, good balance on a strap and of course a factory Plek’d fretboard.
The bass has 2 big Pick Ups which gives a good range of thumb positions when playing. You would think are both Humbuckers, but the neck pick up is actually a Split-Coil, like a Precision.
The 2 – band EQ provides all the tonal options you’ll need, and the bass can also be run in passive mode.
Comes with a Sandberg gig bag and tools.
