  1. [quote name='Mike Brooks' post='260882' date='Aug 12 2008, 03:04 PM']No it isn't, get yourself one because these offers won't be around much longer. Can't begin to say how happy I am with my purchase, having waited 18 years to resolve my Spector craving....should have dealt with it long ago. Silly boy! Mike[/quote] Better late than never Mike..... though I knew that night when you played a few of mine that it wouldn't be long...
  2. [quote name='thedonutman' post='260879' date='Aug 12 2008, 03:02 PM']I think you're supposed to get the bit of the Schaller locks that attach to the strap too. I got them. He did say that they didn't keep them on the basses because people steal them thoigh. However, I don't think you get them on Rebops. I noticed that Cetera's Rebop 4 (when I was repacking it) that it just has ordinary strap buttons. I want a LX4 or Rebop, but 2 Spectors within 2 weeks is a little excessive for me [/quote] It's not excessive.... it's called Spector GAS and I'm its biggest victim! lol! Join me won't you?! No Schaller pins on my ReBop?! Ah well, I'm sure at the price I paid for it my budget can stretch to a pack of new Schallers...
  3. I have 37 basses & 7 electrics..... I don't consider it a problem.... and I love every one of them.
  4. Just Schaller strap pins..... not locks....
  5. [quote name='Crazykiwi' post='256692' date='Aug 6 2008, 08:28 PM']OK, but if Stuart has you on a retainer for promoting on the site, we have a few expenses that need taking care of... [/quote] If anyone's on a retainer on this site for promoting spector it should bloody well be me!! lol!
  6. [quote name='Lee-Man' post='256456' date='Aug 6 2008, 04:46 PM']How depressed am I, you don't want to know what I paid for my NS4 [/quote] Don't worry.... Mike played this one..... and didn't like it AT ALL!! Yours was a winner.... Mike will be along in a minute....
  7. That's because they're new stock.... and not 'bought out' ex-SoundControl stock...
  8. [quote name='Mike Brooks' post='256377' date='Aug 6 2008, 03:21 PM']Well that's me sold hook line and sinker, one Blue Euro LX4 winging its way to Brooks Mansions!![/quote] Hey Mike!! Lovely stuff.... Welcome to SpectorWorld!
  9. [quote name='cd_david' post='256224' date='Aug 6 2008, 01:04 PM']It was 10 years ago, but still absolute bargain at the time, I felt guilty knocking the guy down [/quote] Tell you what, I won't knock you down.... I won't even offer you the asking price..... I'l go HIGHER! I'll give you £330 for it

  14. [quote name='BassBunny' post='255303' date='Aug 5 2008, 12:39 PM']Birmingham Reverb have got an an Amber Rebop at this moment in time.[/quote] Hmmmm.... I fancy zebrano, black, red or black cherry....
  15. [quote name='thedonutman' post='254792' date='Aug 4 2008, 07:21 PM']They had a few rebops at £299, and two Euro 4s. One in that natural oil colour and one in a red colour. I think considering how I spent the last 48 hours being paranoid about it being sold to someone else, I should be pretty pleased [/quote] Oooo.... may have to get me a ReBop, haven't got one of them.... what did they have colour-wise (and at which shop was this)?
  16. Yep, a Hondo II..... I had one for a while may moons ago...

    [quote name='bassplace' post='254059' date='Aug 4 2008, 02:02 AM']I've never had a custom, (although mine does have "Custom" on the headstock),[/quote] Wow..... that white is GORGEOUS!!
  18. Congrats! Thats a SHOCKINGLY good price!!
  19. [quote name='Sarah5string' post='253444' date='Aug 2 2008, 06:51 PM'] I'm of the 'best of both worlds variety'[/quote] Good girl! :brow: Can't say i noticed the bass playing either..... I was too busy looking up her skirt!
  20. Very nice! Always fancied an old one of these in a solid colour....
  21. I'd thoroughly recommend the GB Neox212T. A superb, lightweight cab with a huge sound..... & I'm sure it would be a perfect match for the Shuttle! I'm enjoying mine immensely....
  22. Ahhhhh...... tis a thing of beauty!!
  23. [quote name='Stockholm Syndrome' post='250376' date='Jul 29 2008, 12:33 PM']Really? Then why do people always talk about how they prefer the HazLab in Spectors? It seems that they were quite common for a period.[/quote] Because Spectors were heavily used and endorsed through their pre-Kramer and Kramer periods (1976 - early 1990's) and this is when many of them had the HazLab preamps...
  24. Awww.... Johnny.... This bass is a BEAUTY! Sorry you have to let it go.... but someone could get a 'bass for life' (to use Nick's phrase) here....
