PauBass Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 (edited) Well guys, I have decided to offer for sale my Spector 5 LX... it's not being played much these days and it's a shame having it laying around. It's been my main bass for a while but have moved to another band and don't need a 5 strings anymore. The bass is in excellent condition apart from two small dings on the lower horn, but to be honest, have been properly reapired and they are hardly noticable (can provide picture on request). This bass is a joy to play, very versatile and comfortable. Comes with Hard case and a nearly new set of Elixir strings installed. I'm looking for £600. Have a look at the pictures: I'm living Hove and you are more than welcome to come and try it.

Machines Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 I played on this when homer had it - amazingly gorgeous and just a dream to play.
RichBowman Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 It's an awesome bass - Stunning punchy sound, comfortable as anything, and abosolutely stunning to look at. The neck was the basis for my Shuker build. Also, for what it's worth, it's not an LX, it pre-dates those particular models and actually has a SOLID maple body, rather than the veneer that the LX's have (an in my, probably uninformed opinon...) is probably a better model. For a ball park guide on what a cracking price for this bass, check out the price this LX went for: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=2384"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=2384[/url] You can't go wrong - Added in that Pablo is a top bloke to deal with too. And the middle picture has my duvet cover in the background! Rich
niceguyhomer Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 It should be law that everyone on Basschat should own this bass at least once.
Shaggy Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Hi, Really interested in your Spector - I don't know much about these basses but it looks the business and I need a 5. Could you give me a few specs please (active? long scale? Roughly when made?) cheers, Greg

To be honest, I know I'm going to regret selling this bass but at the moment I'm not playing it much and also have other things in mind.

PauBass Posted July 17, 2007 Author Posted July 17, 2007 SALE PENDING! Thanks to you all for your interest... I'll keep you posted.
cetera Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Have a free BUMP in case it doesn't sell....! It's an excellent bass..... and as mentioned before, your model is actually a Euro5, which is an older (& some say better) model....
