'New' (reissued?!) EBMM basses - Tony Levin SLEDGE Classic Ray and SABRE!!!

[Schnozzalee]

I'm surprisingly keen, could do with some better piccies though - cool spot!

Might have to exploit the new job at a music shop and get them to order a Sabre in!

A bit more info:-

[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]Sabre specs:[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]-11" Radius[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]-Compensated Nut[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]-21 High Profile, Wide Frets (like the regular Stingray)[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]-2 Alnico Humbuckers[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]Switch Configuration (all combinations are in parallel):[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]1-Coils 1 & 2[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]2-Coils 1, 2 & 3[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]3-Coils 1, 2, 3 & 4[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]4-Coil 3[/size][/font][/color]
[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]5-Coils 3 & 4[/size][/font][/color]

[color=#333333][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif][size=3]Thus different from both the SR4HH and the original lever switch Sabre. In particular as well as either of the Hs or both Hs together, it gives an HS ability or a S in roughly the P bass position. Sounds v interesting.[/size][/font][/color]

I thought the sabre (post "83) used the same settings ( not in this order if I remind); ( - Bridge Humbuker; Bridge Humubcker + Split Neck; Both Humbuckers; Split Neck & neck)
