Sandberg Continues 35th Anniversary Celebration with Racing Car Design Series

Sandberg Guitars Racing Car Design Basses

Sandberg Guitars is celebrating its 35th anniversary with four limited-edition Racing Car Design basses. Each model features racing-inspired finishes that recall “legendary Hollywood movies and today’s race tracks.”

“The limited-edition Racing Car Designs feature Sandberg´s classic shapes like the California TM in light gray with red and blue racing stripes and active electronics, the classic split-coil-loaded California VS in British racing green, a rubin-red California TT with creme racing stripes (with a roasted maple neck and passive electronics) as well as their most radical design – the Sandberg Forty Eight in dyna coat blue with orange stripes!”

All of the basses are treated with Sandberg’s soft-aging treatment and come with aged hardware. They will be available for order throughout 2021 exclusively with prices ranging from $2,000 to $2,660.

    They got the descriptions all mixed up. It says the red one has an ebony finger board with oval inlays. Looks like roasted maple to me. They got the necks of the silver one mixed up with the red one
