I have a virtually identical 606 (including weight).
Actually, I best check it's still in my bag when I get home...  :D

Worries me that my Icon Original has a similar amount of grains (all be them straighter) to a few 606's that are about

606 you're right.

Was budgeting for Original, saw that, picked it up and didn't bother putting it back.

Will be knocking it in until ye ol' faithful finally snaps

Looks decent and for more than half the price you can't complain with that! Love the profile of the Six6 too

Fantastic stick, absolute steal as a 606! (A good price at the 808 price point and probably an acceptable Original).

Looks like you can put those saved pennies towards some more kit!

Looks lovely. Looks like the 606 is very popular as this is the 3rd or the 4th stick I have seen that is too good to be a 606.

Not wanting to be a grumpy old man but is that a bargain? While it looks a good stick, did you buy it brand new and have given it some use or did you buy it used?

What do 606's sell for brand new if this was £115?........Asking some honest questions here, not trying to be an ass so please take it the right way.

Bought it new from a local shop. Sticker said £125 and the guy knocked £10 off and chucked in a grip for good measure. In comparison to what I was willing to spend, this is a bargain
