[quote name='Bassassin' post='699211' date='Jan 3 2010, 12:27 AM']I think this is an Italian-made Melody copy (M logo on the headstock) - someone on here had one a year or so ago, I expect a bit of searching might turn up some info. Never seen a Melody in real life, but I had a no-brand Japanese one a while back - it was a ringer for the real deal & I probably should've kept it. Jon.[/quote] Yep, it looks exactly like my one I sold..... I'm sure it was to someone in the Sunderland area too. Nice 'basic' bass but the sliding pickup was a bit noisy/microphonic.

BUMP with price reduction! -
[quote name='bassplace' post='699085' date='Jan 2 2010, 08:59 PM']Actually bought the Wal for $150US then paid about $500 for repairs.[/quote] US$150?!?!!!!! Wow!!

[quote name='GremlinAndy' post='698528' date='Jan 2 2010, 03:32 AM']Hi buddy I used the thumb bass. and the rig was erm. **LOUD** and tight. But do you know what, I haven't managed to get the growl I got at your house on that Thunderfunk through the 8x10. I can't understand it... I even bought the black streamer that I was playing that day. Sell me your Thunderfunk buddy! I need to find out if that's the missing element.[/quote] Andy, I trust your tone has plenty of honking mids and a touch of chorus?!?! Essential for Ross Valory sounds....

Check out my Spector ReBop in the 'Basses for Sale' forum. £1000 bass for £550 Link: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=71910"]Spector ReBop[/url] Only a little more than you wanted to spend and worth EVERY penny

[quote name='Machines' post='698283' date='Jan 1 2010, 07:24 PM']I'm sure it'll be fantastic quality, but what the world does not need is more Jazz copies. It's a saturated market and no-one has to scratch around finding a high quality Jazz bass. I'd be more interested to see them coming out with something SOUNDING like a Jazz but with a less carbon copy design.[/quote] +1,000,000

[quote name='steantval' post='696357' date='Dec 30 2009, 02:35 PM']The band name is not to original though. Check out these guys? [url="http://www.myspace.com/departureband"]Visit My Website[/url][/quote] Yeah, but they're in the US and never likely to tour here.... There are at least two other KISS tributes with the same name as my band in the States as well....

Mmmmmmm..... two of my fave things..... a Wal..... and in 'white'!

I'm moving on a couple of my Spectors..... not because I don't like them anymore, god forbid....( !) but because I need to raise some funds for a very special bass purchase. This one is a mint condition [b]Spector Re-Bop4 DLX[/b] (Czech-made) in a beautiful dark cherry stain. This comes with the full Spector inlays, black satin hardware, maple neck, rosewood board & EMG pickups. [b]*SOLD*[/b] No trades thanks! Collection from London/Surrey preferred. Please see my feedback for confirmation of a clean, honest transaction. 'JohnnyLager' has also bought a Spector from me in the past & would, I'm sure, be willing to vouch for me too.... Bass is actually darker than shown in the pictures. It was very hard to capture the true depth of colour and the woodgrain pattern.

This comes with the full Spector inlays, gold hardware, maple thru-neck, maple back, thin laminate of walnut for a tighter fundamental & EMG active pickups. This bass is mint, hasn't been gigged and comes with a soft case... it might as well be new from the shop. No trades thanks! Collection from London/Surrey preferred.

[quote name='ashevans09' post='678714' date='Dec 9 2009, 03:05 AM']Soooo... Long story short, been ODing on Alice in Chains recently and been catching as many of their shows in the UK as possible, and I just can't get over how good Mike Inez's spector sounds. It's colossal! I've been lucky enough to play spectors before so I know I like how they play etc etc, but I am now seriously considering moving on a load of my basses (not the MTD, never letting that thing go, love it to pieces ) plus a load of other things to fund one. So yeah...just show me some Spector porn . And also talk me out of selling off my Pedulla and '78 P for this (they both are secondary to other basses so don't get used as much as they should). I'm eyeing a Euro4LX with a PJ config. Edit for spelling.[/quote] Hey Ash! There's nothing more I can really add to the praise of all things Spector that hasn't already been said. They really are magnificent basses, particularly the Euro and US ranges..... they look sexy, are incredibly comfortable to play and have the most almighty growl! One more thing..... I may have a couple of my prize Spectors for sale (don't worry, that still leaves any in my collection!). Nowt wrong with them.... I just need some dosh for a very special purchase! PM me if you are interested..... and this applies to anyone else too!

[quote name='Sarah5string' post='677536' date='Dec 8 2009, 09:26 AM']I would LOVE to be in a Bon Jovi tribute band... but I think my boobs and vagina would put pay to that.[/quote] Oh I don't know..... JBJ is well known to be a t*t and act like a c*nt at the best of times.... lol!

[quote name='alinbassplayer' post='680892' date='Dec 11 2009, 01:01 AM']bump for a fellow romanian.....[/quote] Just to help you.... that is a Korean made Kramer Spector NS2C you have there. It was the entry model of the non-USA Spectors and yours appears to have had its pickups upgraded. -
Sounds great.... let me know if you get any gigs down London/Surrey/Berks way and I'll do my best to make it...

I'll be there.... of course! Got tickets for Manchester, Birmingham & Wembley Arena.... it's gonna be GREAT!!!!
