  1. Hi,

    I've just picked up a Spector 5LT and the control configuration is driving me crazy. 

    It's got a darkglass tone capsule but only two of the three bands are presented (Bass and H-mid) 

    So it has two separate volume controls and two active tone controls as above. 

    What I'd like to do is to put the two volumes onto a stacked pot and add a balance control which would free up a space to put the new lo-mid control on. 

    The current volume pots are JS500k ohms - what value would the balance part of the stacked pot require?  

    Open to suggestions as to how else to do this. Cavity depth is 31mm ..

  2. Pop over and have a play if you like... I have a decent pedal board and this sounds much nicer than my COG TK421.. 🙂  I'm on the south warks/north oxon border

     

     

     

  3. I used to run a compact under a super 12 for sh**s and giggles.. However even when I added locking clasps to hold them together, it never felt stable enough to gig in a carefree manner :-)

  4. I had a look at getting a fiver ricky "homage" made by some of the usual suspects.. My specs were 35" scale, 37 mm string to string at the nut, 70 mm string to string at the bridge. Lots of ideas out there, but the budget (neck through) was sneaking close to £2k, and I realised that the chances of ever getting a significant amount of money back was near zero. There is a "rickenfaker" facebook group, and Dave Koenigs 5 string versions come up occasionally.

    I suspect an original 4001/4003 fiver would be horribly cramped, and the B string would suck..
