Sandberg Florence Bass - Ruby Red Soft Aged Finish #47812

The Sandberg Florence Bass in Ruby Red Soft Aged is a beautifully expressive 4-string bass that combines classic styling, comfortable short-scale playability, and the meticulous craftsmanship of Sandberg. Its Ruby Red Soft Aged finish gives the instrument a rich, vibrant presence while the subtle aging treatment creates the impression of a bass that has already spent years making music. The result is an instrument with warmth, personality, and an unmistakably lived-in character.

An alder body provides a balanced and resonant tonal foundation, delivering warmth, clarity, and a natural response that allows each note to remain articulate. The Canadian Hard Rock Maple neck and fingerboard add a lively feel and crisp definition beneath the fingers. With a comfortable 30-inch scale, the Florence offers an easy reach and relaxed playing experience, while the 14-inch fingerboard radius and 22 frets provide a smooth and versatile surface for everything from foundational grooves to expressive melodic lines.

A Sandberg Forty Eight pickup with top cap gives the Florence its distinctive voice, delivering a focused blend of warmth, punch, and clarity. The passive electronics keep the signal path direct and organic, allowing the natural character of the instrument and the player's individual touch to remain at the center of the sound. Its straightforward design makes the Florence equally comfortable in the studio, on stage, or in a relaxed playing environment.

The Ruby Red Soft Aged finish is complemented by a parchment pickguard, creating a warm visual contrast that enhances the bass's vintage-inspired character. Aged nickel hardware adds a gently weathered touch, while the black dot inlays provide clean, understated detail across the maple fingerboard. Together, these appointments create an elegant aesthetic that feels timeless without appearing overly ornate.

Configured for right-handed players and weighing 7 lbs 15 oz, the Florence offers the approachable balance and portability that make a short-scale bass so appealing. A gig bag is included for convenient transport and protection.

The Sandberg Florence Bass in Ruby Red Soft Aged is an instrument built around simplicity, comfort, and character. From its resonant alder body and Canadian Hard Rock Maple neck and fingerboard to its passive Forty Eight pickup and carefully aged appointments, every element contributes to a naturally musical playing experience. With its rich Ruby Red finish and unmistakable Florence personality, this bass carries the spirit of a classic while remaining distinctly its own.
