For sale my Spector Euro LX4 - same as SE5 Special Edition.

 

White with chrome hardware. 

 

I think there were only 30 of those made. As per the comment below from IvySerpent - this one was made for me afterwards to the exact same spec. 

 

It's in mint condition, sitting in the case for years as I moved to Jazz / Jaguar Basses.  

 

I've upgraded it with HazLab preamp clone made by Mighty Mite. As far I'm aware they made few of those before they got sued so they stopped some years ago. In any case - it's a perfect clone of HazLab and sounds identical.

 

Now... I had US made Spector NS2 in the past and was able to compare those two basses. IMHO to justify the hefty price tag of the US made Spectors they put TonePump preamps into Euro models so you could hear the difference.  I'd say Euro with Tone Pump preamp is about 80% of the sound of the NS2. If you put HazLab into it you get 99% of the US made one. Yes, there might be some differences in exotic woods NS2 is made of and perhaps even the craftsmanship but my Euro was so close in quality and tone to my NS2 that in the end I decided to sell the US one.   

 

I bought it new those years ago (around 10?) and still have the original box (see the pics)

Hi Michal!

Ok, sorry, you're right. It's not exactly. 

Spector made 30 of them and I missed out on it (and yes - I do remember yours ;) ). I got in contact with them and they made one for me to the same spec (same woods - solid wings - chrome hardware) so you could say mine is the 31st one. I was endorsed by Spector then and my name is still on the list of artists.  

I've corrected the post accordingly.
