SPECTOR® Club - Part 31

[worshiprocker]

I know this came up a day or so ago, but did we ever find out if this is legit?? If it is, and no one here is bidding, I might be on it!

we decided it was a legit brooklyn ns 2

PJ had 2 of these built specially for Chris as an "experiment"

I like the "non-reverse" P/J config too. With that short of a body, it makes sense and leaves ample room for picking between the P and J pickups.

I just might have to place a bid...or 3! Thanks! I would love to have an old brooklyn NS-2!

 

[JonKim]

I should stop bidding

 

[5string_phunk]

I should stop bidding

why?? I actually just placed my max bet and it was instantly out bid. Someone with deeper pockets than I has their eye on it!

Jaymi will probably make his announcement in a few days.

Jaymi will probably make his announcement in a few days.

LOL! I have no doubt! He will be upset that I just bid the price up by $300...and then bowed out!!! LOL!

Hey guys. I'm looking for some thoughts on the ARC6 guitars. My son's been playing guitar now for about a year now on a 3/4 size electric and it's probably getting to the time when he should move up to a normal scale guitar. He's almost 10 and skinny as a rail so weight is a consideration. (Digressing...I remember being about that age and mowing a lot of lawns to save up for a used black Epiphone Les Paul so I could live out my Steve Clark fantasies in my bedroom. But man was that thing heavy, slung down around my knees...)

And yes, I know, I know...he should be playing bass...believe me, I'm trying...:scowl:

Sam (Limaguy) has an Arc6 Pro and really likes it from what I hear. If you watch some of the NAMM 2012 video's, he is using that and his Forte to record all of the tracks he made and it sounds great.

He got his for a great price used from Guitar Center and they pop up on there from time to time. I just checked and they have one for $269 which seems like a deal. 107478963 is the number if you need it and its in the Miami Florida store.

I would highly recommend a ARC 6 Pro. You may be even able to find some for around $200 used at Guitar Center. I got mine for $215 shipped.

Sometimes GC will drop the price on items that have been there for a while.

Very small body, and overall it feels smaller then my previous Ibanez guitar so I think it would be perfect for your son.

I will PM you some leads if I see any.

I'm watching it.

 

[Jaymi]

I think we're all watching it but...

I think we're all watching it but...

Watching - yes. Bidding - unlikely!

 

[Jaymi]

yeah, it's cool but you never know...

Case question-

so the ReBop I'm getting doesn't come with a case. I dunno that I want to shell out the $$ for a big heavy HSC... have any of you had experience with the soft-hard cases that are out there? And if so, what kinds? I'd look at a gigbag but I think for the price, the hard-soft ones are a better value and give better protection.


I'm looking at either of these:

SKB 1SKB-SC44 | Sweetwater.com
Gator GL-Bass | Sweetwater.com

I had my ReBop 5 DLX that came with a Roadrunner soft side case...didn't like it! Sold it to a friend for $50.00. It always felt lopsided and the bass moved around too much.

 

[JeffplaysBass]

i dont like you then!

J/k...mine is still being made...hehe

I'm not really sure how to respond to this, but it won't take 20 pages.

First, I don't have anyone kissing my butt. Not sure who that's aimed at.

Second, I do hang out with Spector musicians. I think many would be amused to be called celebrities. So I'll pass that along.

Third, let me know when you find out a way to break a person's nose through TalkBass... perhaps a special keyboard command? Ctrl/Alt/B/N ? And then the person's mouse attacks them or something?

Dude, not questioning your heart. I think we know each other well enough to know that we're both decent, good people.

My point was that I've gotten several people tell me how turned off they've been by the way they were treated here, and it in return colored their perception of Spector "Die-Hards". And I know you all to be really cool, helpful people so it's disappointing to see new visitors think otherwise.

First impressions stick. And I know there have been plenty of douche-tards who have come through and tried to rip people off and they get called out and usually run away with their tails tucked.

But every once in a while you get someone like Steve who's appears to be completely legit and honest, just uniformed. So just be polite and ask because you never know.

Hopefully your right....He might be legit. I just have encountered a lot of scum....anyways i will give this guy the benefit of the doubt. Good luck Steve!!..Peace everyone!!!
