How did you record the bass? Just wondering if all you used was a bass preamp? Or did you mic a bass cabinet? Thanks.

It`s a mistake on the Spector Website, that the Tonepump/TP jr, is boost only. Treble is boost 14dB to cut 12dB at 6,5kHz. Bass is boost is +14 to +4 dB at 55Hz. Flat ist roughly 2/10 Bass and 4-5/10 Treble Knob. main flaw of the TP Jr.: the Output is not adjustable like on te regular Tonepump in higher priced Euro Neck Thru Models.

Hello, this is Rene and you're watching Beard The World Joking aside, how do Spector make instruments that are so versatile? It appears to me that they are vastly underappreciated for pulling this off. They're pretty too.

Yeah once I went over to Spector a couple years ago I've never been able to play anything else since. Even the low end performer series ones outclass some basses that cost twice as much. My first spector was a legend standard I got for $500 and it sounded and played better than my $900 Ibanez

Dear Grigor, as always, your unbridled enthusiasm is undeniably infectious! And, yeah, I’m looking for the same features on neck-through versions, even with higher price tags. Just have to sell one my vintage Mercedes-Benz’ or something… Thank you for keeping your awesome BASSTHEWORLD channel going. Almost holiday time. So, I’ll be buying more of your awesome merch. Just wore one of your t-shirts to a local Marcus Miller concert last month. PEACE.

I also got the Dimension in 4 string. It's an utterly beautiful instrument but challenges your technique when played at the low end. Don't believe all that faff about fan frets being easy to adjust to, they are not. However, have to say it sounds amazing. The nearest classic bass I can compare it to is the legendary Aria Pro II SB 1000. Don't bother with the five string, if you've never played fan frets before. It will simply slow you down and frustrate the hell out of you. The four string pretty much epitomises what the instrument can do.
