Sandberg Marlowe DK Aged Red Metallic

The Sandberg Marlowe DK lets your playing speak with passive J-style tones

The Sandberg Marlowe DK Aged Red Metallic combines a striking finish with a clear concept: two single-coils, passive controls, and room for your own playing style. This four-string signature bass is interesting for bassists who don't always want to fiddle with an extensive equalizer, but prefer to shape their sound with their hands and the pickup balance. The alder body and Canadian Hard Rock Maple neck give this model a familiar foundation. The Aged Red Metallic finish adds a distinctive visual character.

The Sandberg Alnico single-coils offer the versatility you expect from a J-style pickup combination. The neck pickup emphasizes a round foundation, while the bridge pickup adds focus and articulation. With the balance control, you blend these accents into a sound that suits the track. A subtle attack can support a laid-back groove; playing closer to the bridge brings more emphasis to the contours of every note. The passive tone control helps you roll off the highs for a softer sound, suitable for soul, pop, and more understated accompaniment.

The neck is attached with six bolts and has a 34-inch scale length, or 864 millimeters. The fretboard has 22 frets, a 14-inch radius, and block inlays. Volume, balance, and tone keep the controls straightforward, even when you need to quickly find a different accent during rehearsal. Chrome-colored tuners complement the classic look of the instrument. The Marlowe DK comes with a gig bag, making it practical for transport to the studio, rehearsal space, or stage.

Pick up this Marlowe DK in Aged Red Metallic and discover how much variation is hidden in a simple passive pickup combination.
