Well it must play faster with the competition stripe and all
Wow, they were cr@p cars. My dad had some cr@p cars, but never this bad ![]()
I have a lot of lust for one of these.
@Tommydogg & @ResumeIgnore I can whole heartedly recommend Spector basses. I love my Dimension and it’s probably the most versatile out of my collection in terms of how many different tones I can get out of it. Granted, mine is the earlier non-HP version so I can’t speak to that side of it. I do love the Fluence pickups on the older version, though.
I have a birthday coming up and figured I’d celebrate with a bass. I think I have it narrowed down to these 4.
Spector legend standard
Jackson spectra x

Schecter omen
Yamaha trbx 504
The stupid thing is being in a fairly large city the selection around here is shit and can only try the Yamaha and maybe the Jackson on a good day.
my dad’s pal had one for the longest time!
No idea what the first three are like, but the Yamaha is a great option ![]()
I love my Yamaha 304. It’s so comfortable to play and sounds great.
We had one growing up. It was a massive POS ![]()
But growing up working class, it was what my dad could afford!
I have a Spector Legend Standard, same one as in your pic. They are great basses at a reasonable price point. They also look pretty damn cool!!
Spectors have a real following…there’s a reason for that ![]()
I had the Warwick version (Rockbass Streamer LX) and it was a great bass, but I found its ergonomics were not for me.
The Yamaha TRBX line is perfect though. I loved my 604; that 504 would be great.
When I was at school, a friend’s dad had the Vanden Plas version with the ‘Bentley’ grill. They thought they were right posh!
It was still a cr@p car ![]()
So, I kinda want a Warwick. Mostly because one of my favorite bassists plays one. But then today I was at a shop and I played a Warwick German Pro Streamer 5 String, which is way above my budget. But it was so amazing and unique.
This shop is like 100 miles from my house so I can’t just pop in and try other basses whenever I want. So I’m wondering what the big differences between the rock bass series and the Pro series are.
My $400 Squier to $1400 Fender was a noticeable improvement. And it looks like Warwick’s entry level basses start around $1200.
Sorry folks. I’m mostly just thinking out loud, so to speak. But any opinions on Warwick’s will be appreciated.
Oh that could explain why I couldn’t yank out the plug in the shop ![]()
@MikeC : new color scheme from Mayones for the HF Jabba?? Yellow aged or something??
Not quite my cup of tea, so perhaps this is the wrong thread ![]()
Too many strings ![]()
Haha, well the other two basses in the video are worse in that respect ![]()
Found a better pic:
There also is a 4 string signature from Junior Braguinha with a similar finish, it appears:
Is that gold hardware? ![]()
