Gust0o Posted February 22, 2012 Author Posted February 22, 2012 I still owe WaveyDave a reply - but, whilst I get that sorted, here's a more general bump.
TorVic Posted February 23, 2012 Posted February 23, 2012 wow, that's a nice looking Spector! any recording or sound samples available?
Gust0o Posted February 24, 2012 Author Posted February 24, 2012 Thank you very much Torvic. It's a beautiful bass. I'll look into some sound clips this weekend, but should warn that I am a rock player - Jazz musos will be left wondering why I'm not playing something more beautiful

[/quote] Haha, I am unbelievably tempted.., if only to draw out the inevitable "what is the slap sound like" questions Whilst the whole range of Euro and US Spectors have some incredibly refined sounds, such as would be at home with jazz, funk and the like, they also make incredible rock basses. I mean, where have we seen Spectors before - Pantera? Black Label Society? Nickelback? Robert Plant?
longtimefred Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 Metallica's black album was also mainly recorded using a Spector as well. I know loads of rock n metal players that use these. I have had 5 myself. This is one stunning looking bass. Hope it goes for you dude.

longtimefred Posted February 24, 2012 Posted February 24, 2012 yeah! he toured the black album using alembics and spectors along with some other bits n bobs. the sadowsky's came on the load period.

Gust0o Posted February 24, 2012 Author Posted February 24, 2012 Sugars? I'll need to list a price, methinks.
