magcom1977 Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) Hi. So I'm GASing badly for a Zon Sonus 5/2 to go with my 4/2 which means some basses have to go to build up some funds. Here for sale is my Spector ReBop 4 MM in matte trans blue stain. It's only 3 months old and has been rarely played. As such it's as good as new with not a mark on it and no visible signs of wear. Also included is a Spector branded gig bag. I'm looking for £800. Of course if you have a Zon Sonus 5/2 I'd happily consider a trade. Thanks for your interest. Edited January 15, 2013 by magcom1977
longtimefred Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 ah man that is ace! wish i had some cash!
Bassdude BE Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 Hi bud, If you decide to sell the 4/2 to go for a 5/2 i want you to know that i'm still intrested in buying her from you!
magcom1977 Posted December 16, 2012 Author Posted December 16, 2012 Hi Bassdude, my hope is to have both but if that doesn't work out, you'll be the first to know.
x_Morning_Star_x Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Wow what a beauty! love the finish on this, if i had the funds i'd be all over it, unfortunatly i don't :-( good luck with sale though!
longtimefred Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 just out of curiosity, how does it sound? i have owned a good few Spectors in my time but never heard one with a MM style pup in. Anything similar to a MM?
magcom1977 Posted December 17, 2012 Author Posted December 17, 2012 Thanks for the good wishes Morning Star. longtimefred - I apologise for the poor answer I'm probably about to give as I always struggle to articulate what a bass sounds like. I've never played a Musicman so can't make a comparison. I also haven't played any other Spectors so can't make a comparison there either. However... with the tone pump, if I turn up the bass and leave the treble down relatively low I find that I get a really nice warm, beefy, blues tone when playing with fingers, which is handy as I happen to be playing a lot of blues. Mind you, when messing around, if I dial up the treble and play with a pick I'm able to get a much more shimmery metal tone. I tended to leave the pickup in single-coil mode as the dual-coil mode could sound a little boomy, not unbearably so, but I live in a studio flat so have to think of my neighbours!
magcom1977 Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 I believe it's a standard ReBop nut width of 1.64" (according to the Spector site) but I'll measure it tonight and confirm.
