If you're happy I'm not sure why you'd change something?

I don't like the DG pre, which is why I'm swapping mine out...

 Bought 3 for myself too! 

I'm also getting at least one set from him once I get around ordering, the Aguilar OBP will be replaced by it in the white Euro 435.

I’ve got the EMG BTS preamp in my CRFM euro, I am happy with the sound but I could be tempted to try the LHZ out of curiosity. Can anyone comment if the LHZ is likely to sound more similar to a TonePump or the BTS?

Haha yeah! I guess it's curiosity as the Haz is said to be such a part of the sound! I find the Darkglass pre very aggressive though, don't use much of it but it does give me what I like!

I've had a total of 4 in my CRFM including a mighty mite copy and all preamps have their own tone. The LHZ is a HAZ copy then its closer to a tonepump than a BTS is.

I've never actually played through a real Haz however the LHZ is far the best sounding of the ones ive tested.

Very nice!

Euro ltd order runs are possible with a minimum order of approx 25 pieces. That's how I organised the Euro X basses last year...

The RST I had which was the lightest bass ever had no neck dive.

Thank you for the information, they then were able to strike a balance between light body and light neck, something that wasn’t quite as successful with the weight relived Classic 5 I have (which I love nevertheless)

 

edit: yours was a four or five string model?

I have (what was) Woodinblack's RST and I can confirm it is crazy light with no dive; its party trick is handing it to people and seeing their face when they realise just how light it is.

Started to think what could I do with 25 Spector Euros. Some colour selection is permitted within the order, right? 😄 😄

 

Anyway, here are videos of these limited editions for what it's worth. As much as I haven't really liked the RST's sound with the Aguilars these are quite great sounding with the Spector DNA intact.

Probably time to look into doing that again right? :D
