karlfer Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 (edited) I took the following Spector in part ex for an expensive Warwick. The really nice guy owner told me it was a Legend 4X Holoflash. I've put it up for sale (my subs are fully paid) at a touch less than I gave him in part ex against the Warwick.. Somebody on another forum has told me it's actually a REX and worth a good bit more than I have it out for. I'M NOT LOOKING FOR; a valuation or hiking the price up. It stays at the price it's out at. What I would like to know is how to identify if it's a REX or a LEGEND, so I can advertise it correctly. Shoulda stuck to Fenders. Please help a confused old geezer Somebody else on the other forum, quote "that's a REX signature dude".

bagsieblue Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Yep that's a Rex Karl, A "squarer" shape than the legend. Great bass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted August 4, 2016 Author Share Posted August 4, 2016 Cheers Martyn, much appreciated. Looks like I might have got a bit of a bargain, so happy to spread the love Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenjames Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I have a regular Legend Classic 5, and the pups have SSD on them rather than EMG HZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damonjames Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 [quote name='chickenjames' timestamp='1470341803' post='3105398'] I have a regular Legend Classic 5, and the pups have SSD on them rather than EMG HZ. [/quote] This is more of an era issue, than specific to Rex or legend. The earlier legends all had HZ's, the later had SSD's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naxos10 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I think the Legends were more of a P/Jazz bass shape (mine is) while the Rex is the same shape as yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlfer Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 Thanks chaps. The new owner was delighted with it last night Think he was also delighted with getting it for £325 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
