max363 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Anyone heard about them? found this beauty in their site, feel very GASy... http://www.spearguitar.de/products/en/Basses/Signature-Series/Spear-E-Bass-FLEXTOOL-jamaika-green.html Quote
Icarus_147 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Not a fan of the greenburst, but the Gothic Black V-STD 4 and the Natural V-DXE 4 look VERY nice. I'd be interested in finding out the quality of these. Quote
max363 Posted March 8, 2012 Author Posted March 8, 2012 Went through ebay and found out that these exactly same basses go with 2 different names, and 2 different prices... Quite of a red flag, but still GASing.. Quote
BigRedX Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Tried one of the single-cuts at Music Live several years ago. Rather clunky and heavy IIRC... Bought a Tenori-On instead. Quote
Gust0o Posted March 9, 2012 Posted March 9, 2012 Wow, that's quite a daming review! I didn't find much better when looking about the web - though I did catch a Youtube clip of one being played: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngccsT7AbQs"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngccsT7AbQs[/url] Quote
bigsmokebass Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 A lotta bass for the cash, who could say no? Quote
gafbass02 Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 If the cash is right and you don't mind the niggles absolutely. All I'd say is though bear in mind what you could buy with the extra cash that might need throwing at it. I've been there and done it! Quote
shizznit Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 One of my students has a Spear bass and it is...well...to be polite, adequately priced! Quote
jazseven Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 i have a nt spear gladius (guitar) which i adore BUT i put a lot of work into it to get it that way, their stock pups aren't bad but i swapped them out along with all the electronics and the finishing on it is dreadful, lots of rough un-sanded bits from routing and none of the plastic covers for the electrics fit properly... this is a good 3 years ago though so maybe they've upped their game a bit since then Quote
max363 Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 God offer that i couldnt refuse, and geddy lee jazz is at home.. would really love to have 3 pups & green burst, but, well I am happy with what i got now Quote
1970 Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 headstock looks modelled on a black eagle that's had that piece fallen off it Quote
