It's trivia time!!!

NOTE: At this present time, I haven't a clue if this particular bass is still available for studio use.

Over the years, many big-time, famous bassists would specifically request this particular bass to record with. This bass has graced quite a few albums from many artists and groups that have sold in the millions.

Here's a couple hints for you:

(1)Spector
(2)S.S. (The original owner's initials.)


Name the original owner and what brand the bass in question is.


Answer to come later .

Damn you!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow. Your're on the ball dude, ain't ya? Do you (or anyone else) know of a list of the players that's used that bass? I swear, man. My jaw literally hit the floor when I seen your answer. I'm still in disbelief.
I'd really like to know the complete history of that bass, for sure. I think Jason Newsted demanded to use that for the "Black" album. Hell, now I'm kinda bummed.

It was a wild guess. I just looked at the Spector website and saw a picture of the Loverboy guy. That rang a bell that I once heard Bob Rock owned his bass and it was used on a bunch of Metallica albums. So I took a shot
