I have a Spector NS4-CRFM "Transition" Bass (Made in Czech, but technically not a Euro). Stuart Spector Designs, LTD - Makers of fine electric and bass guitars: UNCOMPROMISING QUALITY | UNPARALLELED VERSATILITY | UNBELIEVABLE SOUND
Locking Brass bridge, unlike new Euros which aren't brass
34" scale I believe
EMG active P/J pickups with EMG BT Circuit (Vol, Blend, Bass, Treble)
Upgraded to 18v, sounds 1000 times better than stock.
Has Gotoh Drop tuners, work really well, original holes were professionally filled.
Neck-through
PJ Rubal said it was made in the summer of '99 and less than 100 were probably made
This is the best bass that I've ever played, it's tone is very versatile and just pure awesomeness  , But unfortunately, I'm sorta GASing for a fiver. This is feeler because I don't have a fiver, I'm just seeing what's out there and my next bass could be yours! 
What I'm looking for: Spector Basses (No Asian imports please(unless Japan)), 5-string, 34"-35" scale. Neckthrough, active pickups and preamp, not 19 mm spacing but not 16mm either, (I have small hands)
But hit me up with whatever, the worse I can say is no.  Also has OHSC, and straplocks. I can record sound bits (in a studio) if you are interested. I don't want to trade down, but I can add some cash to trade up.
Thanks, Nate.

some pictures are not focused, my camera was acting up 
There is a small ding at the end of the lower horn on the back of the bass
The awesome flamed European Maple wings show woodgrain!

Also, a ding at the top of the headstock

I really wanted a G&L L-2000 before I got this. But now I'm never going back. And with the 18v mod, it sounds so awesome!
