SPECTOR® Club - Part 68

[Zitch]

me too, a friend has one and I really dig his tone with it.

I love my Rebob 5 dlx especially at the price i got it for, its the one that will get handed down to my son if he wants it.

And I just put my order in for a custom Black Cherry matte stain Euro 6LX. They say it'll be delivered in November, but last time it was delayed 2 months so I'll see it in January! If it's as dark as I imagine, I'll name it Bloodface.

Cool! Sounds awesome...your first 6r?

Yup, first 6r, but I am confident I'll handle it ok... I hope.

I'll do my own outdoor pics this weekend.

Whoa. That's like swampy's evil stepsister. And I mean that in a good way.

Hey Eric been meaning to ask you how that mm114 worked out for you?

Lee great pics!

I think you'll be fine. For me, the biggest challenge was (and still is sometimes) that I played guitar before ever playing 6-string bass, so I was use to going from G to B on the guitar, and now I had to go from G to C on the bass. It's been 18 years and there are times I am not 100% sure of the note I'm going to play!

I didn't want to do the guitar tuning on bass for harmonic reasons plus I like the C. I think if you just practice some scale formations by expanding them to the C string that will help a lot. Maybe Christian can chime in on how his transition went.

I like having "evil" counterparts, kind of like my red Coda is the evil twin of Ice's blue Coda.

I guess that's where learning on bass & not knowing a guitar from a banjo helps me. I instinctively played the C on my BTB like every other string. It was quite easy to adjust.

Yeah I could see where that would be easy considering it just continues the tuning in 4ths. To be honest I haven't played 6-string regularly for years but I am getting back into it now since I have the 6XL. I expect it will be second nature again soon.
