SPECTOR® Club - Part 61

Not open for further replies.
I just listened to the bass only of that song played by Rex the other day on you-tube and when I listened to yours I was like damn Giant nailed that Sh@#. :D

Awesome! Thanks!!!
I was listening to the bass only track and I just bought "TGST" from Jammit, so I've been playing along with that a lot today.

I've been thinking of getting a Darkglass B7K soon, but this was one track with my Axe Fx...

Might save my money instead ;)
 
More on the Special White Ian Hill that the club had gotten for dear brother Chris Loe (RIP):

I could write a book about my feelings about this bass, however, I can and will sum it up simply:

1. The bass ROCKS
2. Post gig, I've seen the light regarding the USA 9Volt circuit (insert Jab here Lee Presgrave...LOL)
3. I believe there is something very special about this bass....it inspired my playing last night

4. It's now my number ONE

Simple, to the point

Details about the bass (for those that don't know the details):


WHITE Ian HIll model
Sadowsky Black Label Stainless
Hipshot Detuner
Spector USA 9 volt circuit preamp
Once owned by Chris Loe respected Spector Artist, dear friend to Patrick, Sam, and probably several others we know.....

I feel very emotional about this bass, how it came to Chris, how it came to me, the club members and artists that contributed to reaching out to Chris.....I know I was not nearly as close to him as some of you, but as I type, I am overcome........ I am honestly shedding some tears.......

I'm being as HONEST and SINCERE as I could be with this post

Love your family, say a prayer for Chris's family and friends and love your brother

Amen brother :cool:Amen

JAMIE,, IT is awesome to know you have that bass and that I know you would love to hear it in person and will be looking for when you are playing next.. JUST WOW RIP CHRIS the bass is in GREAT HANDS:bassist:
 
I just bought an RH450 and love it. Of course, I don't play out and use it only in my house so I am a bit limited with my info but hearing his tone with his Euro on the Steven Wilson Blu-Ray from Mexico just floored me.

There are so many cool features on that head which you cannot go wrong with and when I got it, they gave me the foot pedal for free which is like a $150 value. It's just very convenient to be able to switch between 3 different settings just by hitting a button so for that alone, makes it worth it.

John, who did you buy the Steve Wilson BluRay thru? Thank you.
 
Awesome! Thanks!!!

Man, I really wish I could justify one of those Axe FX devices. More and more bands seem to be using them and I have always loved the tone you have in your videos as well.

I know Dusty and Paul from Between the Buried and Me use them as well as all the guys from Meshuggah. It's popping up all the time in the rig run downs from Premiere Guitar but that is way overkill for a bedroom player like myself :)
 
Just ordered it. :bassist:

You ordered this one right?

http://www.amazon.com/Get-All-You-Deserve-Blu-ray/dp/B008LSVL6U/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1370825122&sr=8-5&keywords=steven+wilson

That is the concert from Mexico but he also has a Blu-Ray of his latest CD "The Raven That Refused to Sing" which is great also but the concert is simply amazing. They play the first few songs with a curtain in front of them which is so cool with the visuals going on. You will not be disappointed, especially of you like this song:

Yeah, I ordered the concert in Mexico. Your link is to the vid that got me started on Steven Wilson. I like this one too...

Oh yeah, that is the track when they drop the curtain. I didn't know that was on Youtube as well but I get chills every time that thing drops and you hear the roar of the crowd.
 
Well I'm gonna pull the trigger on USA darkglass b7k . And sell my b3k I'm thinking as great as the 3 is the 7 can only be better Right ? Spectors sound so darn good with this pedal.

I keep trying to talk my guitarist into getting one. Hasnt worked yet.
 
:bassist: Variety is the spice of life.

But if you're in an all original band I can see wanting to find "that one sound" that's yours.

I'll use a different sound in different parts of the song. Hey, whatever works. :bassist:

That's the one consideration is I'm in a cover band and finding my own sound isn't completely necessary. So with just using the 7 it should suffice and give me flexibility to dial in a killer od tone when needed.
