Phil Mann Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 A stunning collection, well done for bringing together such a wonderful example of Stuart's companies work. I'm the proud owner of the first production Ns5XL (003), I'll post a few pictures when I take delivery of my custom Spalted Flamed Maple in October and kill two birds with one stone. Phil Quote
dub_junkie Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 wonderful! .....that plum stain Euro is lush and the white ones are just amazing looking I've got a flame maple NS5 CRFM coming back to me this week and it'll soon be hobnobbing with the green stain Euro 5 . I'm now hankering after one of the spalted maple/zebrano/burr top ones too...quite fancy a 4... very addictive basses - I've yet to play a better bass at what I paid for them. Quote
ben2323 Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 that is an insane collection im so jealous haha Quote

cetera Posted August 12, 2008 Author Posted August 12, 2008 (edited) As there's been so much interest in the recent amazing Spector deals at Reverb I thought I'd bump my Spector porn thread...... and attach a generic pic of the new Dark Cherryburst Spector ReBop DLX bass I've just received. A real picture of the 'actual' bass will follow at some point... EDIT Jan 2010: This bass has now been sold on purely because I need the money for a major bass purchase. Didn't want to sell but needs-be.... Edited January 5, 2010 by cetera Quote
niceguyhomer Posted August 12, 2008 Posted August 12, 2008 Lovely collection - you should change your forum name to Spector Clouseau Quote
Jarhead Posted August 16, 2008 Posted August 16, 2008 Cetera, whats the Rex Brown signature sounding like? I'd love to try one out, because Pantera are one of my favourite bands and i always thought his tone was kick ass lol Zach Quote
cetera Posted August 18, 2008 Author Posted August 18, 2008 The Rex Brown has a very punchy, slightly scooped tone due to the EMG-Hz pickups and circuit. For a more genuine growl/grind with more mids I'd recommend updating the pickups with full EMG's.... Quote
warwickhunt Posted August 18, 2008 Posted August 18, 2008 Anyone know what the latest state of play with regard to what Spectors and Warwicks they have left? Quote

What EMG's do you recommend? Zach Quote

cetera Posted December 16, 2008 Author Posted December 16, 2008 BUMPING this thread due to a resurgence in Spector interest and a rash of Spector buying happening on these boards! Oh, and I also have two more recently acquired Spectors to add to this thread when I've photographed them.... Quote
yorick Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Gary emerges again. They're all rubbish i tells ya..... If only i was a righty See you saturday!!! Quote
johnnylager Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 [quote name='cetera' post='233162' date='Jul 5 2008, 01:47 PM']the 'Wood Finish' Spectors..... from left.... Zebrano EuroLX, [b]Natural Euro LX (now belongs to JohnnyLager[/b]) & Walnut US 1976 SB1 [/quote] Who must put it down sometime soon! If anyone has any doubts about the ease of adjustment of the Spector bridge [as I did] - don't worry, it's easier than a conventional one. Is there a red one missing? John. Quote
