Hey cd david and discreet. Thanks for your kind comments and thanks 'discreet' for re-sizing the image.
My lack of photography skills really don't do these basses any justice. In the flesh they all look so much better.
I've had the Euro5 for a while. I'm not really a 5 string player but when I originally saw it for sale I couldn't resist.
I subsequently bought the NS5XL with the intention of moving on the Euro5 but then found I couldn't bring myself to
sell it.

No problem. I generally don't like green basses, but there's something about that one. It's a cracker! :)

You're welcome and if you ever think about selling it (or swap it for my overwater 6 ) give me a shout

Cheers
Dave

Did you buy the 5XL off here a while back?

My trusty NS-94 and a styleised (it's trans blue) pic of my first bass - NS-2000/4 bought new from the Bass Centre in '99. Mid-range Spectors have great build quality and are therefore good platforms for electronics upgrades. Both of these go for less than £200 these days.
Also not so long ago I remember the Czech LX series going for £600-700 in the now defunct Sound Control - how did they get so expensive?

Yes, I've been looking at that. I've also been looking at this:

And I have a strange longing to own this, too:
