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:
My brain in mush and I can't even write a proper sentence...
Dude when you cut the CD consider me first in line I love your stuff man, youve got an incredible ear and an awesome mind for music.

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
I'm curious what you'll think of the P/J config with the OBP-1. I had a Euro5 with the OBP-1, and it was 100% low end. I was not thrilled with the lack of range with the DC40s and that OBP.
I have a feeling you'll prefer the TPTP to the OBP-1, but that's just me.
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.
Grendle's Greenie is a strong contender for the "Best looking Euro bass - Ever!" award.

Yup, every generation thinks the next generation is the beginning of the end. Remember how the adults of the 50's knew for certain that the college students of the 60's were out of their mind? And when disco came in in the 70's well THAT WAS IT. Doom was eminent. And on and on and on.
And let's not even get started with the 80's.......
And let's not even get started with the 80's.......
No kidding.

Got my Divinity Compromised CD today in the mail. How cool is that? Bunk gave a shout out to the Talk Bass Spector club in the booklet which i think is really cool. Thanks man, can't wait to listen.

Ice: pics look great.

Hey first one to notice it!
How could I not mention the club here that has hooked me up with so much info, gear and the opportunity to be affiliated with Spector?

FWIW, my PJ equiped Euro4 (see avatar) originally came with the OPB-1. It was very clear, but I found it too....."clean" for lack of a better word.
I've since found my TPTP to be a better fit overall.
