discreet Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 (edited) Spector Archive - Basses made in Korea: Every day's a school day... the original Legend5 with the Humbucker and Jazz pups and the B30 EQ preamp is scarce because they were only produced between 2004 and 2005, - a very short production run. These Legends became the current models with SSD pups and Tonepump Jr. Pre in 2006. Lots of models here I've never even heard of before. Probably worth hunting down some of these - bargains to be had, I'm sure.

Damonjames Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 The oracle has spoken !!! That is an impressive collection cetera, would really love to try out the NS2J, they look awesome!!

discreet Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 (edited) OK thanks, Paul - let's try again... This is a bass cover featuring the Spector Legend 5. Yes, I know there's a balls-up in it. I've pasted the link into the OP as well.

[/quote] He does, but generally only in limited runs. If you look at cetera's collection there is a white NS2J, Czech made bolt on neck j/j spector. I'd love to play one! There is also a drool worthy limited edition Czech made neck through 5 string j/j euro In blue which is stunning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 Yes, there's something very attractive about a white Spector... can't quite put my finger on why that is...

Damonjames Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Well played Mark, it takes some nuts to play over Bernard Edwards and post it in a bass players forum!!! Not too shabby fella, and that spector sits really nice in the mix, lucky for you I had already bought my NS2000/5 or I'd probably have had that one off you!!!

aLxbass Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Great playing, great sound. Iv'e had many basses before I got my first Spector.. which was also a Legend 5. The GAS will never end! I now don't have my legend but I have a NS-5CR and a Euro5LX - and I'm still on the look out for more. No going back for me I don't think!
