FS: Spector Euro 5XL

Couldn't edit the sale price in the subject line of old thread, hence, new thread to avoid confusion.

I've come to the conclusion that this isnt going to sell quickly like I'd hoped, so I'll repost it for what I think its worth and if someone wants to make me an offer on it, great, if not, I'm stuck with a really great bass.

Instrument is 9.2 pounds and is in excellent condition w/ some minor thumb wear above the pickups. Was PLEK'd about a year ago and has very low action, extremely easy bass to play. Currently strung with a new set of DR Lowriders, and comes with a well padded Warwick gig bag.

$1,200. shipped, CONUS. Open to reasonable offers.

Will only consider trades --including cash on my end-- for a 5 string, 35" scale jazz of Lakland, Lull, Valenti, Nordys, etc. build, and also Roscoes.

If no one buys this bass by the end of the week, I will eat this small, helpless bird.

..............Alright, well if you do eat it, at least cook it properly. BBQ sauce makes everything better.

One bird a week until this sells. Are you willing to live with that on your conscience?

It was awful, and I've brushed like 5 times and still can't get the taste out of my mouth. And the screams... of the horror.

I'm going to have to switch to holding kittens hostage starting on Monday...

If my wife wouldn't do the same to me for getting another bass, I'd definitely take it off your hands.

I appreciate that. However, that doesnt change things.

Week 2: these kittens will be thrown over a bridge in a bag to drown unless someone steps forward to buy this bass by Friday.



You've been warned.

Hi. What are the specs on the electronics? (eg, what pickups and type of preamp). Thanks.

I didn't want to be the one to bring this up, but there's an eerie resemblance between the body wings on the Spector and the middle kitten.

I'm just not sure where the kitten ends and the bass begins.

Apparently, the eaten bird and dead kittens caught the attention of CTU, and as of this afternoon, Jack Bauer has possession of the bass.



Please contact him for information regarding the sale of this instrument as it is now a matter of vital national security.
