Nitro Arc 6

I went to Beez's to get my (Tesla) VR-Nitro installed in my Spector Arc 6 Pro yesterday. Rico & Faizal were there as well & we talked for at least an hour... The former pickups in this guitar were the VR-60s; nothing wrong with them, they absolutely thrill when it comes to vintage crunch but I'm in need of distortion overkill.

I hear a balanced output from the Nitros, that's one of the reasons I like this pickup model (have it in 2 other guitars) & a closer look revealed the above- staggered pole pieces.

I've included the Orange Drop cap & a push-pull coil split switch in this guitar as well.

TESLA's VR-Nitro humbuckers are also in these other guitars of mine:

• Schecter: Omen 6
• Brian Moore: i91

Spector-cular Arc6 Pro!

I've acquired myself a Spector ARC6 Pro after being much attracted to Stuart Spector's basses.

As documented on the headstock, the manufacturer's name & brand emblem. The design in whole is devoid of any sharp edges/ protrusions, the headstock included.

The ARC6 Pro is a reflection of its bass siblings, sporting a curved top...

... & rear. In my opinion, this is the signature Spector feature making it less ordinary & very attractive.

6 bolts to secure the neck to the body, a little overkill but these add much to sustain.

A pair of Tesla VR-60s; these give off a mixture of vintage growl but they are not averse to high drive/ distortion settings.

Please visit Musicark @ Parklane shopping mall to check out Spector basses & guitars. Thank you Mr. Lance for all the considerations in acquiring this instrument. Not forgetting brother Firdaus (aka SicBarney) for the stellar customer service. Kudos!
