chuck_stones Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 Here you go; as promised some sound clips of the Spector in action. Please forgive the very shoddy playing though, I didn't have much time to play around P&J pup's, finger style, flat tone: [url="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ_Finger_Flat_Tone.mp3"]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ...r_Flat_Tone.mp3[/url] P&J pup's, finger style, bass boosted: [url="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ_Finger_Bass_Boost.mp3"]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ..._Bass_Boost.mp3[/url] P pup solo'd, finger style, bass boosted: [url="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_P_Finger_Bass_Boost.mp3"]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_P_..._Bass_Boost.mp3[/url] P&J pup's, slap style, bass boosted: [url="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ_Slap_Bass_Boost.mp3"]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ..._Bass_Boost.mp3[/url] P&J pup's, slap style, flat tone: [url="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ_Slap_Flat_Tone.mp3"]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ...p_Flat_Tone.mp3[/url] P&J pup's, slap style, both tone boosted: [url="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ_Slap_Tone_Boost.mp3"]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8800648/Spector_PJ..._Tone_Boost.mp3[/url] Quote
Lorne Posted June 10, 2011 Posted June 10, 2011 Well, I sold one of my Yamaha RBX 6JM's to Chirac (Thanks mate), and wasn't going to buy another bass, then I found THIS, cheap in the U.S.A. I know it's been defretted, it's going to be refretted as soon as it gets here, and the tuners returned to the normal position I've always wanted a Thru neck Spector with P+J pick ups, and the Crown inlays, and surprisingly, I love the colour Any idea what fretwire they used?

ezbass Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 Man alive this thread is dirty! Lovely basses. Quote
TorVic Posted July 8, 2011 Posted July 8, 2011 Newly acquired (2nd hand) Euro LX4 with Zebra wood top. Pre-Amp modded to EMG BQC. Gold Knobs. First Spector, of a few more to follow, I think! Quote

RhysP Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) No Spectors added to this thread for a while, so here's my recently purchased Euro 5 LX: Bought from DesmondPot a few weeks ago (and owned by a few others on the forum before him) & it's an absolutely stunning bass; really comfortable, sounds awesome & plays like a dream. Always wanted a Spector - if they're all this good I can see why they're so popular. Edited March 24, 2012 by RhysP Quote
dnarocks Posted April 24, 2012 Posted April 24, 2012 I really rate my Spector Rebop, but I would love a Spector Euro. Anyone know of a good bargain going anywhere? would trade and cash. Quote
RhysP Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 [quote name='cetera' timestamp='1335391342' post='1630524'] Rhys, gorgeous Spector there my friend! [/quote] Cheers matey! It's an absolutely superb bass & I love it - the Zons haven't been out of their cases since I got it. There's not a single thing I don't like about it Quote
guildbass Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 My 1999 NS 2000-4 ... Only year they made 'em with this body ! Plays like an angel...Slightly tighter brighter sound than the Streamer but then it's denser wood, the bass weighs nearly 12lbs! [attachment=106155:big.jpg] [attachment=106156:body 1 big 2.jpg] Quote
Mog Posted April 26, 2012 Posted April 26, 2012 Didnt know we had a Spector thread. I must get a decent snap of my two. In the meantime a live shot will have to suffice. [attachment=106186:Pig.jpg] (Rebop 4 Zebrano) Quote
dub_junkie Posted April 29, 2012 Posted April 29, 2012 getting serious pangs for a Euro 5 again looking at this thread and wondering whether one of my Stingray 5s should be a Euro 5? some really beautiful basses on here Quote

[/quote] Having owned a Stingray 5 before I got my Spector I would say yes. The Spector wipes the floor with the Stingray in every aspect IMO. Quote

It's the best 5er I've ever played too; the B string really is great - really clear & focussed & perfectly balanced with the other strings. I haven't touched my 4 string Zons since I got it, which I really wasn't expecting to happen. Quote
waynepunkdude Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 Bought this yesterday, any idea what it is? Quote
