AndyTravis Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Nice (and scarce) Japanese bb1600. Really don’t want to sell, but I can’t keep it just to say “oh I’ve got one of those…” Got to pay off some recent spending. Really lovely, high quality (like silly quality) passive p/j. Bass is very clean, played but loved - some tarnishing on got hardware but it’s 34/35 years old. Just a shade over 9lb will come in new high quality padded case, recently restrung with GHS boomers. Will come with a selection of gold yamaha spare bits (saddle springs/pickup surrounds). Plays perfectly, sounds wonderful. Listen to No Doubt’s “no doubt” and “tragic Kingdom” for how it sounds. Don't really want trades. Shipping’s an option at cost/risk. Rough guess £40/£50 insured in UK. Also selling a bb350f converted to fretted from the same era.

Bunion Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I guess the Spector went down well at practice then 👍🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I suspect this will be a huge regret. we’ll see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM Stingray 62 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 That’s a beauty Andy if I hadn’t just bought another bass last week I would of definitely had it of you. Someone is going to get a fantastic bass and they don’t come round every day. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee650 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Yeah, rare as Hens teeth and the pinnacle of BB excellence. Amazed you're selling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umcoo Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Very nice. Had one of these a few years back. Great build quality and sounded fantastic. Not sure why I sold it actually. Good luck with the sale. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know this was the Goldilocks bb… and I wouldn’t find another any time soon… So, Spector is listed here now - got some demos to do later so will be using 414 and 1600 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
