Well drop C is such a drop in tuning that I would have to put heavier gauge strings on my stingray, whereas with a fiver I could tune it to [color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]CGCFA or something along those lines.[/font][/color]
[color=#141414][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]Seems to be the same here then, people are recommending Spector basses and the Legend series, but nobody's played one of these neck thru's [/font][/color]

I see... A mate of mine used to play a Warwick Thumb tuned up a semitone. It works but can a bit tight.
I would go for the 4 string and drop tune - drop-tuned Spectors are utterly brutal!
