FS/FT Spector Rebop5DLX-EX Mint

[peledog]

Not sure I want to sell yet, but I've been gassing for a Spector Euro 4 or Euro4LX. FOR SALE OR TRADE!

I got this a few months ago, brand new. Currently has Spector Nickel lights on it. It's zebra wood. I set it up to my liking when I got it. It plays amazingly. The B string is thick and punchy - the EMG HZs and the TonePump really put out an aggressive tone. Easily dialed back for a warmer thump. The TonePump can be adjusted, there's a trim pot on it. (accessible through the control cavity in the back). Right now I have it at about 70%. It's a strong preamp.

The bass is clean, the neck is straight - everything is factory stock except for the strings. Specs from here Stuart Spector Designs, LTD - Makers of fine electric and bass guitars: UNCOMPROMISING QUALITY | UNPARALLELED VERSATILITY | UNBELIEVABLE SOUND

I really like this bass, I haven't weighed it properly, but on the bathroom scale it's 9.2 lbs. If there's enough interest, I'll put it up for sale/trade officially. Better inquire soon before I change my mind and yank this. But, I have GAS!

Bump for one purty bass!

[cjmodulus]

This is one of those threads that makes me wish I wasn't so $&@&$&@ broke.
That top is stunning.

[peledog]

Thanks nervous. Yeah, the top is amazing cjmodulus.

As I said, I'm gassing for a Euro 4. This Rebop is an incredible instrument.

[stjohn1299]

A good luck bump for a gorgeous zebop!

[LimaGuy]

Bump for a great guy selling a great bass, and his band sounds great too.

[peledog]

Thanks stjohn1299 and thanks LimaGuy!

Just thought I'd add some info. I adjusted the truss rod when the bass first arrived. I let it sit for a couple weeks, then adjusted it 1/2 turn more (more relief) - then slapped on the strings and I haven't tweaked the truss rod since. I live right next to the ocean, so sometimes humidity is definitely something to be concerned about. But, no worries. I tune up maybe twice per gig, and that's it (using the tuning keys only, of course).

The bass is mint!

[peledog]

These retail for over $1600, and list for over $2000.

This is a great deal for a minty Zebop!

[peledog]

Played this today through my TC rig (RH450 and RS212). I love the tone! You will love this too!

B-b-b-b-b-ump!

Come on peeps! Super deal on a like-new Rebop. Quality Czech made. Stare at the woodgrain for a while...

[peledog]

Ok, some inquiries - so I'm going to open this up to include other trades besides the Euro/Euro LX

A few interesting trade offers, any others? Bump.

[peledog]

One last bump for posterity. Get it? Posterior, bump...?

Nevermind.

[Evil Undead]

Probably going to be a no, but are you interested in a trade with a custom shop Warwick?

[peledog]

Sounds interesting, but I've tried Warwick (German Corvette Standard Active 5) and didn't like the feel of the neck. Thanks though!!
