Re: solid maple wings on Euros... Spector themselves (PJ Rubal iirc) stated the following on talkbass - I don’t have the thread to hand but this can be googled.. 1) maple wings on Euro’s were European maple, which isn’t as hard as North American maple - and doesn’t sound the same 2) they specifically designed the Euro ‘sandwich’ in an attempt to get closer to the sound of US spectors 3) the ‘sandwich’ actually costs them more to produce than if they had used solid european maple wings In practice far more of the tone will be due to the North American maple neck-thru wood blank (same on euros and on US spectors) PLUS the emgs/preamp. Just trying to share some facts. in any case this looks like a killer bass, with whichever hardware it’s wearing! And like all spectors it should also sound great, regardless of body wings material 👍

Sold elsewhere

Price drop - may have overpriced previously

Set of 5 black Schaller tuners, off a 2008 Spector euro. Need 12mm holes. Screws washers and nuts included. Believe these are German made £30 or €35 plus postage at cost perfect working order but some natural wear

Is a video / audio demo possible at all?

I miss mine 😥

Interesting electronics. Are the mini toggle switches 1/ 1+2 /2 for each ‘pair’ of pickups? Are all pickups true single coils (or any of them split coils), and in which positions is hum cancelling?

That fingerboard is really stunning!

Nice bass!! agree the BQC preamp / vol / balance rocks in Euro LX5 - that’s what I have in mine

To be fair to the OP, you would also need to factor in VAT and shipping, when considering Michalik’s prices.

And gets rid of open A buzzes!
