AndyTravis Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 (edited) So in a constant battle with myself for a yamaha bb which sounds more like a Spector, and a Spector which feels like a yamaha bb… I bought this from @Bunion a couple of weeks ago - admittedly on a whim, and it’s a stunner. It was an expensive experiment to see if the Spector LX i sorely missed would defeat the yamaha bb1600 I’ve chased for years. I thought the Spector had won. but… I’ve compared recordings, same room, same amp, same recording gear… And there’s something (to me) that means I can’t let the yamaha go. so. 2007 Euro lx 34” scale, amazing top. slight mark near the jack and a small mark at the side of the fingerboard (bass side, fret 4/5) neither of which upsets the Apple cart. cleaned, polished, restrung with Dunlop superbrights. schaller locks included. Spector gig bag (which is lush). £900 collected - exactly what I paid, but you get new strings and the Dean markleys which were on the bass when I got it. postage is an option at risk/cost. i in all honesty - I want to keep it, but I’ve got to balance the books, and I’ve got some studio time to pay for next month so… Edited November 7, 2021 by AndyTravis Too special to let go just yet. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldon Tyrell Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Killer looking bass for a great price. However, do you really want to break up this lovely trinity of flame maple basses? 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The studio time I’ve booked won’t pay for itself and although I’d absolutely love to keep this…I can’t at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will also soon have to part with one of my basses to finance another one. GLWTS 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
