  1. Great looking bass with the thinner neck, which I prefer over the normal Euro necks. Very tempting indeed. GLWTS ๐Ÿ‘
  2. Agree and Jerry was not in great shape either as he mentions in this interview with Lars Ulrich:
  3. On April 10th, 1996, AIC performed at the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Majestic Theater in NYC for MTV Unplugged. I know some people will disagree and point to Nirvana's, Pearl Jam's or Stone Temple Pilots' appearances (or definitely maybe Oasis?), but for me this is most legendary performance. Enjoy ๐Ÿ˜
  4. Wow, ยฃ700 off for a 6months old bass in showroom mint condition and extra pickguards? Sounds like a fantastic bargain. Very tempting. Must resist ๐Ÿ˜Ž GLWTS ๐Ÿ‘
  5. I cannot believe this cool bass still hasn't been snatched up. Made in SoCal, in great condition, at a fair price, and with the tone control that some people miss on the SB-2. The jazz nut width is the only thing keeping me from buying this amazing bass myself. GLWTS ๐Ÿ‘
  6. Can someone please, please buy this bass? I cannot justify buying yet another Spector but I am getting tempted ๐Ÿ˜‰ BTW, here is the man himself telling you all you need to know about this great bass. Check it out! GLWTS ๐Ÿ‘
  7. Yes, a great bass and a great collector's item too! PJ Rubal says a bit more about the background of the 77 here: PJ Rubal's Vintage Spector Collection
  8. Well, maybe they got the date wrong. They would not be the first: VW 'sorry' for early April Fool's Day Voltswagen PR stunt | Business News | Sky News
  9. Today, I received a nice Fender Boxer PJ from Dan. The whole transaction was very smooth and super fast. I was especially impressed by how Dan packed the bass in not one but two boxes (!) using lots of bubble wrap and other packing material. Great stuff. Thanks again, Dan ๐Ÿ‘
  10. Cool Thread. Well, on "Have I got news for you", this one would be the "odd one out" as it is not a song about dentistry but sung by a trained dentist ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  11. I checked some LXs and found the necks too chunky. Last year, I ordered the Fishman Fluence LT and that one had a chunky neck too. I sold it. My 77 LE has a nice thin neck and my Mike Starr has a neck somewhere between the 77 and the LX and LT. For my Fortes, I asked for the thin neck specs which they also do for the Ian Hill model.
  12. Yes, definitely looks much better. I did not notice any difference in tone or depth. The 77 has so much oomph that even if the new bridge were to have a bit less oomph, it would still have so much oomph that I would not notice any drop in oomph, d'you know what I mean?
  13. Well, what can I say. I think we discussed this "special" edition earlier in this thread. They are only making 25 4-string and 25 5-string. Let's see if there are that many squid lovers out there. Maybe they should market it as this bloke's signature bass ๐Ÿ˜‰
  14. I agree, looks cool but I don't think the boot will fit on the Spector though.
  15. Could be but I don't know to be honest.
  16. Yeah, not cheap but I think it will look killer and maybe make the bass a bit lighter too (as it did for my 77):
  17. Man, that finish looks great. Fortunately (for my bank account), I do not play 5 string basses
  18. The Euro 77. One of my fav basses. I can also confirm that it really is a P bass on steroids. GLWTS ๐Ÿ‘
  19. Yes, Spector GAS is real and a very costly disease ๐Ÿ˜‰ We will probably see even more Spector basses with Aguilar pickups now that Korg USA has bought them
  20. Yeah, in an ideal world I would have bought them all. The amber one looked great too. I wonder if someone here on BC bought it. Lucky him/her ๐Ÿ˜Ž
