Just had a brush with a possible "great deal" in the Guitar Center used listings.
There is a GC in Ohio that has a USED SPECTOR EURO HOLOFLASH for $549.:eek:
I called, but it is actually the Korean model. Which makes it overpriced for a used one.

From what I understand, they made some ReBops in Holoflash, correct?

I don't see it as an option for ReBops and I haven't seen any on the market...but of course it doesn't mean it couldn't be a special order item I'd guess,right?

Just took a stab at Mike Starr's tone from the Facelift album. Took me about a day to get the drums and guitars done. Worked with the bass tone this morning and tried to get as close as i could with my Euro 4LX 35.

Hope you guys like it!!! :hyper:

Let me know what you think?

It doesn't sound like they do too much research when they put these things up for sale so it's almost like you can either get one for a steal or get over charged. People need to either come to this thread or do their homework.

As far as I'm aware there have never been any holoflash Euro models made.

Stuart has made a handful of holoflash USA models. A couple of USA Rex's and a one famous NS-5XL for Danny Klein (J. Geils Band). But I've never seen any Euro models with Holoflash in the thousands of historical photos, etc... I've seen.

Many thanks! I haven't adjusted anything on the tonepump and everything on the bass was cranked.

Any experience with them?
Claim they are hotter than EMGs. And work with EMGs. $59.95 for a new active PJ set.

Based on the EMG PJ set for less than half the cost!

8 Black Screws

3 -25K Pots

One Battery Clip

PJ bass pickups.

Same great tones you come to expect from Dragonfire over the years, but with the output and silence of actives.

Excellent Job!
Which guitars did you use (or what guitar)?
Really professional sounding. Clean bass. Great all the way around.

"I've never seen any Euro Holoflash models in any of the 1000s of historical photos I've seen"...

Other than the one I forgot about on Todd's website... Sorry Todd. But honestly... your collection is so insanely unique and large... it's hard to remember what you have. LOL.
