New embassy (and also thunderbird) bass, Classic style!
cetera replied to tommorichards's topic in Bass Guitars
I rang them yesterday afternoon and they said they only have the sunburst. They have no delivery date for white or ebony and have to just wait and see..... Maybe they DID have an ebony or two in stock temporarily but only to meet existing orders (yours included)....?! -
Or is it 2 days? That's how I understood it.... When he said on Saturday "booking an early Friday finish next week" he could have been referring to either?!? *raises eyebrow hopefully*

Is it Friday yet?!?

Ah, the joys of working from home I don't reckon much work will be getting done that day though! lol!

Had just got a new Spector Euro and took it to rehearsal. Put it on a stand and drummer knocked over one of his cymbal stands which fell straight onto the edge of the body making a thru lacquer to wood gouge below the bridge

Getting REALLY excited for this! Any update on arrival in the UK?!

A sweeping statement that means nothing. I love a good US Precision, but I've played and owned better Japanese made Fender P's for half the price. I love a good P sound but have an old Tokai P that delivers an identical tone (possibly even better). The Precision is an icon and I love it. But there are imho equally good and/or better and more versatile instruments out there..... many of which suit alternative styles of playing better.....

I'd get Stuart Spector to build me a USA NS2 4 string, with Kramer-era neck dimensions, dark ultraviolet (purple) finish on a 5A quilted maple body, ebony fingerboard with abalone crown inlays, hazlab preamp and gold hardware..... ...... and a box of tissues.....

You'd be unlikely to obtain a new fretted neck. Unless someone breaks up and sells parts (unlikely) you will have to buy another bass.

I REALLY fancy a new Epi Vintage Pro TBird..... but can't decide between white and ebony! Oh the choice..... -
What do you love about the Bass or Amp you choose to use ?
cetera replied to lojo's topic in General Discussion
I love my Spectors! I love the sleek shape, the ergonomic belly curve, the solid build, the finishing quality, the attention to detail, the comfortable neck, the history, the customer service/support, the crown inlays and the range of solid, authoritative & USABLE tones -
Yeah, but he only needed 4.....

Advice please: Spector Spectorcore or Legend Classic Fretless
cetera replied to anzoid's topic in Bass Guitars
Of those two Spector fretless basses I've only ever tried the Spectorcore and was mighty impressed. Lovely woody tone and lightweight to boot.... -
A stunner! Congrats& enjoy!
-
Oh, come on! That's hardly fair...!! I've only got 70 so far!
-
I've got my perfect rig for my preferred sound/main projects: Spector US/Euro basses thru old GK800RB and a Genz Neo212T ....so I'm not searching for that 'elusive tone' so much. For me now it's about collecting, enjoying owning and playing other basses that I've always fancied..... or having ones that are more suitable for other gigging situations e.g. old Fender P with flats
-
SSD - NS94 model. VERY nice! They were a great precursor to the NS2000/4 model that followed when Stuart got the Spector name back. Congrats!

Is that a euphemism?

It sounds simple but you know what I believe really appeals to people? A band who are having a good time and can communicate that to the audience and then feed back off the energy the audience sends back in return. Of course there are exceptions - whinge rock like Radiohead etc but there are exceptions to every rule in life. Music will always sound better if you have the required level of chops to execute it to the level it deserves/requires..... but a smile and an element of 'personality' or 'charisma' surely helps sell it.

I always thought his playing sounded like he was falling down the stairs with his bass. I do hope he hasn't. Nice bloke and all that....
