Someone, I forget who, has a few NS-2C maybe they would recognize it...
actually looking at the Spector site it looks like a NS-2C you can tell by the square bottom of the fretboard 
NS-2C™
Bolt-on neck
Perl dot neck
Flat body, similar shape to NS-Bass™
Black hardware
SPECTOR® branded Passive Pickups
1988-1990 | Stop showing that Samick, its givin me G.A.S. for a sunburst one to go with my blue and red ones!! I know, leave it to me to collect all the weird Spectors
By the way, that blue fretless has got to be an Ns2B or Ns2C thats been radically modded....very cool though!

Here is my USA Bolt-on NS-2J... Looks pretty round... My Legend isn't as round, though.

If it wasn't for me making a pact with the little lady at home  ...I was going to jump on it! Would be awesome to add to my arsonal!
What are you thinking in terms of a new finish? Good luck!

U know, I make that same pact with my wife at least a couple of times a year, but something always goes wrong on my end, then I am in the doghouse for a while. Only good thing is my doghouse has basses in it |

I've run into these before in pawn shops and was always stunned at the quality of these early Legends. | a couple of years ago when I did the legends in my Elementary music classroom I had 4 legends, one of them was a Bubinga 4 string. I would play that bass all the time, played and sounded great and I too was surprised by the quality of the bass.
