I'd love to hear how that pup/pre combo sounds.
Is that a USA 9v?
FYI if you guys are excited about P-bass Coda's keep an eye on PJ's presentation at bass player live! in November. He enlightened me on their plans when I ordered it. I'm not some bad ass insider or anything btw, just a Spector endorsed artist. And my custom Coda will actually have features more in line with a standard P-bass than the Coda Jazz, but I really wanted to make sure the neck somewhat mimicked the feel of my euro 4. Also, I've tried tons of amp configurations, and believe it or not I think the best Spector tone I've heard comes out of my Orange rig. I'm using the Terror bass 1000 and it really lets the tone shine throught without messing with it.
Here's a quick shot of Brownie as the sun starts to set...

Your Euro sounds great with the LSD stuff! I wonder what pre will be the best for a Spector P? I know that with the Fender P's you really have to like the tone because there is not a lot of versitility over the other configs. I would think the pre selection would be the most critical in setting the tone with a Coda P.
Your bass is KILLIN BTW!
That looks fantastic....wow!
Thanks guys! It's a never ending quest to try and capture the full beauty of this wood.
Here's a full shot from the back...

That bass is beautiful! And unique, I've never seen another one like it. What's the story on the color? Did you come up with that?
That's a Walnut stain on quilted maple. It's one of Spector's colors, but not a lot of people choose it. It was recommended to me by PJ, then Todd Cooke showed me a pic of one of his basses in this color and I was sold. It needs to be well lit to see the wood pop like that. It has a real subtle beauty.
There's just something about that single MM bass that looks lethal. I couldn't put my finger on why, but I figured it out finally.
You ever see that old movie 'The Car' about the possessed car that drove around running over people? Yeah that's what it is
