Looking into a new four string. Its either going to be a Korean legend, or one of the Re bop bolt ons from Europe. Just a gigging stage bass really. As far as I know both hese basses have exactly the same hardware and pickups/pre amps! Are the woods the same? Any opinions greatfully received. T

Yeah if you can, get a Rebop, the build quality will be better, and usually have the nice block inlays rather than the dots.

But saying that, if you can pick up a second hand Legend as I did for around £200, they're an absolute bargain seeing as they're around £500 new now. I do prefer the EMG BTS preamp that was in the NS2000, but the Legend still sounds fantastic.

Legands are excellent value for money... but if you can stretch to a ReBop then do it...

Having owned two 5 string Euros and a Rebop I must say that they are surprisingly similar. The Rebop actually seems to have a slightly larger lower cutaway and a slightly different neck profile. The Euro has real EMGs and will sound a bit clearer but HZs are still pretty good. Also, the big bonus of the Rebop is that it doesn't have a painted neck.

So in answer to your question, I'd say go for a Rebop if you can.

It looks like I will be going for a Rebop! Trans black dlx four string! Will let you all know how I get on. I love My korean one that I got defretted, so if these are a bit of a step up it should be sweet!!!!
