Across the Atlantic, there exists an entire world of bass building that many U.S. players know nothing about. For years, Euro builders have challenged the status quo with cutting-edge designs that meld ergonomics, eye-grabbing style, and state-of-the-art electronics.

Germany’s Sandberg Guitars has definitely made a mark in this genre with its Euro-centric Custom, Panther, and Bullet series basses. With its California line of instruments, Sandberg takes the classic Fender bass platform and adds some Teutonic flair.
