The 5000s are great for most stuff, but the 6740 really excels at the fluttery double stuff like Good Times Bad Times and the intro of We’re An American Band. And then compared to the Tama, it feels mushy.Those old 5000s you have are way faster than the newer ones still. I played one of those for at least a decade. Can't get along with the new ones at all. Way too heavy. Haven't tried them converted to strap. Maybe that's the trick with those, but at this point I won't be finding out till I run out of parts for my Yamaha. it'll be a while....As hard as I am on my stuff, it'll likely be my last pedal.
So me not wanting to toss them and buy something else for a double, this conversion thing sounds like it might have possibilities. Can you convert the 5000s like mine?
