The time has come to move on my beautiful 2021 US Spector gloss finished Forte 4 in Nightshade. I have loved this bass, and my Spector adventures, but Iā€™m way too scared to use it in anger, so it has mainly remained in the case. This is in brand new condition and a real case queen. It even has the clear film still on the back plate. There is not a single mark on it, and the case is equally as clean. The tools come in a beautiful leather carry pouch, and the COA has been kept in an envelope.Ā 

Ā 

This bass is stunning. It has that punch, that growl when pushed, and a beautiful balanced sound across all strings. The combination of the EMGX pickups and the Aguilar OBP-2 pre amp is a winning combination for me.

Ā 

The action is set very low, the neck is super straight, and weighs around 7lbs so, very light. It comes with a new set of LaBella stainless steel 45-105 strings. Everything about this bass is perfect. So why am I selling? Iā€™m doing a build in my studio, and I need to get some extra funds in to complete said build, plus Iā€™m too scared to use it in anger as already mentioned. As Iā€™m not a collector, I hate instruments sitting around doing nothing when the money in them will be of use.

Ā 

A new Czech Spector CST bass is selling for Ā£2600, and if you can get a US built, gloss finish Forte, you wonā€™t see much change from Ā£4000, so at this price, my bass is a real steal. You will get a custom US bass for less than Czech CST prices.Ā 

Ā 

Happy to deliver at buyers expense, but would prefer collection for obvious reasons. Happy to also meet within a reasonable distance of Cardiff. Any questions, please ask. Cash on collection or bank transfer, only. No PayPal. Cheers šŸŒŸ

Ā 

PS The price is firm. If this doesnā€™t sell, I will put it up for commission sale which means you would buy this bass for more that Iā€™m selling it here.Ā

Wow, wow, wow, what a killer looking bassĀ šŸ¤©Ā Definitely one of the best looking Fortes I've ever seen. They also did not make that many Fortes with a gloss finish, maybe a handful, so this is a very rare bass as well.Ā 

Matt is a great guy who looks after his basses very well. Please buy with confidence and please buy it before I start thinking of how to finance it myself šŸ˜‰

GLWTSĀ šŸ‘

Why do people tend to use edited pictures for their adds?Ā 

No sure what you mean šŸ¤”

Ā 

But there is a limit to the amount of photos that can be added, and if anyone requires more detailed pictures, most people just ask instead of posting a vague question. Cheers ā˜ŗļø

Those are edited pictures (not the ones of the case) and I do not understand why some people put edited pictures in their adds. I would like to see real pictures of the Instrument and not pimped pictures.

Ā 

I am sure that this Spector is a beauty and that it does not need pictures with high contrast etc

If one cannot find the right light, then options to ā€œhighlightā€ certain aspects, act as an aid. We are not all blessed to live in sunny climes to capture the perfect shot. If anyone wants specific pictures in a certain light, they only need to ask. I hope that answers your question. Take care. Cheers šŸ‘‹šŸ»Ā

Having a few wobbles about letting this goā€¦ā€¦. Played it last night, and this morning. Lush! Though it will remain a case queen, it is lovely to own, and to play, whenever I want to. Not sure if this will be one of those ā€œregret sellingā€ basses. Have to make up my mind, and soon šŸ¤”

Definitely!Ā

If you do not have to sell it, then keep it. I am already missing my NS-4 (with solid quilted maple wings!) that I had to sell recently. Unfortunately, I had no choice šŸ˜žĀ Ā

I donā€™t have to sell it, but Iā€™m just not using it and I really, really hate instruments sat there doing nothing. I love it loads, but my go to is something else. It needs/deserves to be used, so itā€™s going to a new home. I completely get what you are saying, and today has been a day of soul searching. The head wins over the heart. Hope you are well my friend. Cheers ā˜ŗļøšŸŒŸ
