Hey guys; it's been a while. Here's what's been going on. Recently i took delivery on my 2nd Spector ARC6US guitar. This one is #40 on the run of guitars made (my current guitar is #28). The finish for this new axe is a red stain; really beautiful. It's another solid rosewood neck. The only difference with this new guitar is the fact that it has Duncan humbuckers installed as opposed to the Harmonic Designs in my "orange" ARC6. I haven't had quite enough time with the new guitar to give a definite opinion on the Duncans; so i'll hold my tongue for now. I will say that they do sound noticably different; at least to my ears they do. I've already had Ernie @ Ernie's Guitar Repair do my typical Drop B set up with D'addario 12's. The new "red" guitar will most likely see action this weekend as BxN has 2 really important shows on friday and saturday. I've also figured out the set up i like for running my rig in stereo as opposed to mono. Learning and experimenting with stereo sound has opened my ears and mind to how some of the guitarists i envy so much get their "huge" sound; make no mistake about it kids, the secret is in the rig set up. More to come.......
