So, that didn't answer the original question at all. 🤔🫤

500H is approx £399 so maybe £600?

Looks very nice. Lots of cool features and very well equipped...

Contact has been re-established with the school (staff turnover/changes in all the relevant booking contacts). Hopefully some positive news soon.

That's OK then. Only 24 died for other reasons.

Wonder if they'll look into dementia, misogyny and fascism while they're at it?

They really do like punishing themselves don't they? Now they have to drive their own sh*tty cars....

Superb! Thank you for sharing all the wonderful pictures of your luthiery.... a real labour of love! It looks wonderful

I run mine pretty much flat but dial back/cut the treble a tad as it's a very bright head. Then I may engage the bump for a touch more low end if required. Alternatively, experiment with boosting the low mid to e.g. 2pm and bass to e.g. 1pm and see which you prefer. I don't really use the overdrive but if I do I keep it very low for just a little growl and then use the edge to control how bright it sounds. It's a great amp with tons of power through an efficient 8ohm or 4 ohm cab. Cabs colour amps as well so I find that it sounds full, punchy and tight through my Genz 2x12 4ohm cab, and clear, punchy and more piano-tone-like through my LFSys Monaco 8ohm 1x12 cab. I have to dial the treble right back with the latter cab! Play around with it, try the switches and then disengage them and try adjusting the EQ in a similar fashion.... see which you prefer. It's a very responsive head! Enjoy!

I don't think anyone's mentioned it being a Kipenbacker special order. That will never happen. It would be standard NS2 shape.

Love mine! 😉😎👍

It was a new 'transitional' model in the early 90's when Stuart Spector was re-establishing his brand after the Kramer bankruptcy. He used the name SSD (Stuart Spector Design) and tried some new shapes/designs like this one, alongside the tried and tested NS2 shape, until he got his brand name of 'Spector' back.... This was one of the first Asian (Korean) models he had produced for the brand and it is of very high quality (maple, neck-thru, EMG BTS circuit). Kind of a precursor to the NS2000/4 model that came along soon afterwards...

Yes, though maybe more like AA? . e.g. My name is *name* and I'm a bass buying addict....

I've had a busy 3 or 4 months of buying, selling and trading. Here are the ones that have come in so far in 2025. Very pleased with ALL of them! L-R... Ibanez Soundgear SR800BK (1993), Squier 40th Anniversary Precision (Gold Edt 2021) & Epiphone Grabber (2024) L - R... Spector Coda Pro 4 (2013), Kramer Spector NS2B (late 80s) & Stuart Spector Design (SSD) NS-94 (1994)

Damn you and your experts....

GK are very popular in R&B/soul/funk circles. Check out the Legacy 800 head.

It does have a little bit of neckdive, but nothing a good strap can't counter...

1. No, the 'Classic' range has a weight relieved body. 2. EMG BTS is excellent. My 2nd fave after the Haz/LHZ. 3. No 😉🤣

Steer clear of using a Spector with monster cables. They have a habit of ruining the input socket.

I've never played a US made Fender that was better than a Japanese one and have saved a lot of money as a result.

All Spector Euros should have the Ian Hill (Kramer-era) neck. Job done.

Bought a lovely 50th Ann Squier P Bass from Ash. Bass as described, great comms and easy collection. Cheers Ash! Recommended 👍

I know there are quite a few people, myself & Eldon included, who haven't bought one because of the poor bursts. They'd sell even more if they sorted them out
