Nice pic! Don't even sweat sending the disc today. I just got all mine out of the way Tuesday since I knew I'd be busy the rest of the week. Enjoy!

Have a great NBD!
No problem, it has the trim pot tone pump

Thx, I saw you lurking around on this one, its actually amber, but not as vivid as the ultra ambers, it really is a stunning bass. Tone is what you expect from a tone pump, great finger tone, still trying to find the right blend for slap, I like the classic fender jazz slap tone.

Here is a little something i picked up today. My first P/J Spector believe it or not so this is going to be interesting. It has an OBP-1 in it so I am curious how it will sound but have a trim pot tonepump standing by just in case

Nice, looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the pre's. I have used the OBP-2 and 3 but never the 1.

Once I get it all cleaned up and re-strung, I am going to record a clip so everyone can hear.

Nice! That's the very first Spector I ever played. Small world. Can't wait for the tone report! I know how you just loooove to explain all of the subtle nuances between the low mids, high mids and chewy textures that these basses produce. (little inside joke)

Thanks man. Neck feels great on this thing. I am not a fan of thin necks and this one has some mass to it so I really like the feel of it.

Thanks Zitch. This one is just a regular Euro non-LX but with the solid maple wings on it.

Haha, Lee. I just never know what you guys mean but low end mids and high end growl and scooped and punch and ping. I am just terrible with it, LOL.

In case anyone is curious what this thing sounds like, I have to say, I am really impressed. I think this OBP-1 is going to stay for the time being since I really like the tone so far. Here is a quick clip with the Limaguy riff with everything set flat:

Hey is that a Lefay bass? I've been dying to check one of those out. They have some cool things going on over there, and their vids are funny as hell.

Green Machine! Baby! I can honestly say of any bass I've ever played in the past 20+years I have never been completely satisfied with my tone until I played this bass.

Also I don't like this new Android app. The old one was better imo.

Nice! I heard the sampler on YouTube, killer tunes.
I think sometime in the summer we'll be printing an actual CD, that'll be nice to have something physical.

I've had an occasion to try Lefay. Didn't like it at all. Neither ergonomics nor sound.
