chuck_stones Posted May 6, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorne Posted June 10, 2011 Share 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?

RhysP Posted March 24, 2012 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnarocks Posted April 24, 2012 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guildbass Posted April 26, 2012 Share 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!

Mog Posted April 26, 2012 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This bass is turning out to have been a bit of a slut on the quiet..... 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
