2019 Sandberg California II TM4 Ida Nielsen

We love the look of this bass! The Ida Nielson Signature Model has a stunning Asian Silk pickguard and gold-plated hardware.

Ida Nielsen became known to audiences around the world as Prince’s bass player. For her virtuoso style between funky slaps and pushing grooves, she has for some time been swearing by electric basses from the Braunschweig cult smithy Sandberg, who have tailored her a signature bass according to her ideas with the Sandberg California TM4 Ida Nielsen. Accordingly, the classically constructed four-string has a bird’s-eye maple fretboard, Sandberg Black Label pickups with active 2-band tone control and a D-tuner for lightning-fast drop-tunings.

This bass is in good condition, with lots of signs of wear, including marks and scratches to body throughout, small dings to bottom of body and tarnishing to hardware. Included is a hardcase.
