JohnFitzgerald Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I think I can contribute to this thread. I am as of the last 24hrs now a Spector owner. Had been checking out lots of stuff over the last few weeks and finally plumped for this bad boy. It doesn't seem to photograph particularly well, but I've tried my best. Being such a deep cherry red, it really needs strong light and I'll need some daylight for that I think. Anyway, here it is. [attachment=123870:IMG_07411.JPG] [attachment=123871:IMG_07471.JPG] I've had 6s before, but not what you might call anything of great quality.

dragan Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 here's mine lovely EURO LX 5 absolutely gorgeous bass! upgraded with EMG BQC preamp as I don't like tone pump pre.

[/quote] To be honest, it just sounds mighty no matter what I plug it into. I did a gig last week with no backline, but with 2.5K of PA and it wast just awesome. Depth, clarity, voice, B string rumble. It was all there. For the first time, I'm at a loss as to what other bass might stand a chance of being played next to it.

I think Spector would be the only brand to move me from my Yamaha TRB's. The tighter spacing might not work in all areas but I'm pretty adaptive as a player, more so if the tone and feel is right.

JohnFitzgerald Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Better pics of mine. Forgot to add this previously. It really doesn't like having its picture taken indoors and works far better in daylight.

Can't have both, do I sell the current one and go for it or are these US ones quite a bit superior in your experiences??... Damn the GAS....

cd_david Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hard to capture the colour in artificial light, but its a lovely deep blue, plays like a dream and sounds fabulous, lovely solid maple wings.
