Classically built 5-string Bass with versatile Delano pickups

With the Sandberg California TM5 RW Black Satin, the Brunswick-based company presents a five-string electric bass that delivers versatile tones with a perceptible vintage note thanks to its proven wood base and powerful Delano pickups. Besides the ash body, the five-string features a six-ply maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, while the typical hardware features Sandberg Bridge 5 and Sandberg Machine Heads complete the California TM5 RW Black Satin Bass.

SANDBERG California TM5 RW Black Satin
The Sandberg California TM5 RW Black Satin convinces with first-class playing characteristics and a versatile sound spectrum.
SANDBERG California TM5 RW Black Satin Back
The ash body and maple neck of the Sandberg California TM5 are screwed together six times in typical company fashion.

Proven wood base and first-class playing characteristics

For the construction of the Sandberg California TM5 MN, the bass builders from Braunschweig rely on proven woods for a crisp sound with clean output of the H-string and even sustain. While the body is made of ash, the six-bolt neck is made of maple with a rosewood fingerboard. The pleasantly flat "C" profile with just 20 mm of wood under the first fret also promises comfortable playing characteristics that make even complex basslines and grooves come easily from the fingers.

SANDBERG California TM5 RW Black Satin Body
Powerful Delano pickups and an active 2-band tone control give the five-string bass a diverse sound spectrum.

Powerful versatility thanks to Delano pickups

The pickups of the California TM5 come from Delano and convince not only with their versatile sound spectrum, whose pleasant vintage nuances are always recognizable, but also with a precise output of the H-string. A wide spectrum of different tonal nuances can be accessed via the blend control, ranging from the rich, assertive low-end thrust of the Delano MCFE humbucker installed close to the bridge to the fat, yet transparent sound of the Delano JMVC single-coil. To further customize the sound, furthermore the active 2-band tone control and the split switch for the humbucker are available, which retrieves authentic single-coil sounds.

SANDBERG California TM5 RW Black Satin Headstock
Lightweight Sandberg Machine Heads with open gears guarantee accurate and stable tuning of the California TM5.

Sandberg Hardware

Of course, high-quality Hardware from our own company harmoniously rounds off the equipment of the Sandberg California TM5 RW Black Satin. On the body of the bass guitar the strings are held by the Sandberg Bridge 5, whose massive construction contributes significantly to the even sound of the five-string. Due to the three-dimensional adjustability, furthermore a perfect adjustment of intonation as well as string action and spacing is guaranteed. At the headstock, the strings are guided via zero fret and nut to the indestructible Sandberg Machine Heads, which guarantee a reliable tuning of the electric Bass.
