Hmm, let me guess: A bass?

Purrfection indeed 😍

Black + maple = perfection

No, no, it's fine, it's called shrinkflation 😉

Spector fans, decided to thin the Spector herd. Both my 2018 Forte 4 in Vintage Tint Ash (only two were ever made in this finish, PJ Rubal has the other one) and my 2021 NS-2 in lava burst (well, that's what I call it anyway ;- ) are on their way out. Both are in "as new" condition as they have never left my living room and I only played them a few times each. I won't put them on BC, reverb, ebay etc. as I don't have the time to deal with all the hassle. However, I am always happy to hear from a fellow Spector friend from this thread (and I only mention it here). Think of getting them to BD by the end of next week the latest. So, let me know via PM if you are interested before I send them to BD and save yourself some quid before you buy them from BD anyway 😉

Nice but it immediately makes me think of this classic 😎

I've been to Oz several times. Great place. It is just too far away. However, I could see myself spending our autumn/winter there (i.e. their spring/summer) and our spring/summer here. Problem is that, at least so far, I have not been able to find two employers who buy into this idea too 😉

That's a very, very dangerous thought you should immediately erase from your mind. Almost heresy 😉

Speaking of Andertons, they already have one of the new Euro 4 RSTs (Sundown Glow) in their clearance sale (2 in stock). Sounds like a great deal: £1,729 instead of £2,399. Quite surprising given that Spector only launched the new RST series recently: https://www.andertons.co.uk/bass-dept/bass-guitars/spector-bass-euro4rst-paulowina-body-w-flame-maple-top-sundown-glow

Sorted 😎

Good point. Fortunately, I don't have any basses that are worth 10k 🙂 BTW, for three of the four basses BC sold for me, I actually ended up with more money, even after the 20% cut, than what I had paid for them (all used basses I have to say though) 😍

Man, what a story. Almost Spinal Tap-ish ("Please assist in providing a detailed invoice listing the scientific name (genus and species), source (wild, captive) and country of origin of the mother of pearl inlay" - Really?). At least it ended well. I sell all my basses via BD. Ok, It costs me 20% but it saves me hassle like the one you experienced.

I also have to confess that "I'm tired of pretending I'm not special. I'm tired of pretending I'm not a total bitchin' rock star from Mars" 😎

Loser? Who is a loser? Not me, I am a winner. WINNING. WIN HERE, WIN THERE, WIN EVERYWHEREEEE

60 is the new 40! https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/feb/09/old-age-why-60-is-the-new-40

Black and maple, timeless classic 🤩

Agree, "bold and bright" immediately made me think of this recently released bass
