Spector Euro 5 [SOLD] £800

[r16ktx]

I bought this bass about 6 months ago on BassChat to try and have never taken it out of the house.

It sounds great and is set up with a really low action, but I
have come to terms with the fact 5 string basses are not for me.

Someone commented on the previous sale thread "This one is a pre-EURO
model, full maple wings instead of the alder/walnut/maple they using
in the last 10 or so years."

"Since 1993 we have been producing world class basses at our Czech Republic factory.
The EuroLX basses use the same USA maple neck-thru neck blank, truss rod, graphite rods,
& EMG pickups as its USA counterpart so the heart of the bass is Spector USA.

EuroLX exclusive features include body wings made of USA figured maple over European alder
with a slice of walnut between (less weight than solid maple wings)"

Wow, what a stunning bass! At this price, I can't imagine it will stick around long. As you mention the NS4CR's have the solid maple wings and are apparently more true to the U.S. Spector sound, but have never had the change to compare myself. GLWTS

This one also has the Spector logo, as opposed to the SSD logo. Never been a fan of the SSD logo myself. Cetera should be able to confirm the details though as he is the oracle of all things Spector!

Thanks, it wouldn't be for sale if I hadn't been so impressed the NS Design radius WAV and need to raise the cash for the CR version!

beautiful and i'll probably regret this bump, cant see it hanging around

These are really top class basses from that era. I had one for many years and if I wasn't looking for a very lightweight bass (Due to back pain) I would be seriously considering buying this beauty.

Still got your old one Frank

Took it on tour last year and it sounded fantastic in the big concert halls, these are seriously good basses that seem to command very little money compared to the new price/quality of instrument. You really will not get a bass as good as this for £800!!

Have a bump
