Who owns or has played a Spector legend 6 classic bass any thoughts or experiences with it would be welcomed

Been loking at the Dean Edge Q6 and was wondering if anybody has owned or owns one as I would like to know your opinions on the bass is it worth the price!
Cheers Ta!

[quote name='agoulding' post='345924' date='Dec 4 2008, 09:56 PM']have you noticed they are alot bigger than standard 4 string pups aswell. they could easily fit on a fit string or more...[/quote]
Yeah I know the only pup that seems to be the same size is a5string bartolini!

Does anyone know if it is possible to get aftermarket pickups for a TRB 1004 4 string

[quote name='6stringbassist' post='296323' date='Oct 1 2008, 11:08 AM']Just got a set of these, they're really good, a nice 'feel' to them, the tension is ideal for vibrato tecniques and fast fingerstyle playing, and the sound is beautiful.

They feel a bit odd to start with, just the one winding which is especially noticeable on the E and A strings.

They don't do a B or a C string at the moment, though seemingly they are going to introduce a B string soon, so I have a B and a C from a set of Lo-rider nickels.

I got them from Thomman, ordered Monday and arrived Wednesday all for £25, that's pretty good service.[/quote]
Stupid question but going back to my last posting will the Hellborg strings fit a 35"scale?

Doe's anybody outhere know where I can get a yamaha branded hiscox bass case?
Can't seem to find anyone that's heard of them let alone stocks'em!

I`m thinking about buying a Yamaha TRB 1004 and i would be interested in any opinions you have from owning/playing the wee beastie!

[quote name='Rayman' post='98233' date='Dec 3 2007, 04:30 PM']Also, the pickups aren't bad anyway, you're better off upgrading the pre-amp to improve the tone, like I may do with my OLP Tony Levin 5.[/quote]

I put seymour Duncan pup & pre-amp in my Levin and also put in a mini 3way toggle switch to change pup settings go for it its awsome !

The OLP MM2 4 string pup has 4 wires in 2 pairs like 2 pup`s in one cover! I replaced mine with a Seymour Duncan pup and a Villex PRTB! and it sounds much better, hope I have been some help!

[quote name='Lfalex v1.1' post='3384' date='May 21 2007, 10:14 AM']Er... Not a [i]real[/i] one. Only a Korean one. I liked it. It was thrown in "on spec" as a stalking horse when trying to purchase a Fender Jazz some years ago at the (Wapping) Bass Centre.

I got through about 25 Jazzes, and didn't really like any. The Burns was better than most in terms of sound. Feel was different, due to the painted neck.
I didn't like the aesthetic of the one I played; White and Gold Hardware (yuck.) Would've preferred a Black/Silver item- I might've bought one, then!

Good variety of sounds from 3 pick-ups. Even the "Wild Dog" setting is useable!
Edit- I am an Aries. Does that make my opinion valid in an ovine sense?? [/quote]

Has any of ewe wonderfuel people ever owned or played a Burns Bison bass wot did ewe think? :
