The new Spector (company) website is complete!

THIS IS A TALKBASS EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW.

I won't be putting anything about this site anywhere else!

PJ Rubal will make the official launch tomorrow on FB, etc... so please enjoy this but don't share it with anyone outside of the Spector TalkBass Forum. Thanks!!!


So you know what you're looking at:

This site is all the history, model history, advertising history, customer service, current news and promotions, and world-wide dealer locations.

Very soon the SpectorBass website we all know and love will be nothing but information on CURRENT Spector Bass models and artists. All other information such as history, etc... will link to the site I'm about to share with you.

The same goes for the Spector Electric Guitars website.

Be sure to look at all the links, etc... on this site.

There's never before seen photos, information and the Model history section now features a very thorough Headstock, Inlay and Bridge section.

And the history section, Stuart's Biography, and many other sections will shed light on some things no one has ever discussed before concerning Spector, Stuart, PJ and the company's history.

For those of you who have asked about the documentary I've been working on, all of the historic info on this new site is FROM my documentary and research.

Enjoy!

www.spectorguitars.com

And if any of you find any issues with links, etc... email me at webadmin@spectorbass.com
AWESOME!!!..THANKS PATRICK!!!

I bought a pack of Davas yesterday; I like the "one pick fits all" idea.
As little as I play with a pick, these will work fine for me. Plus, they do look cool!
No one carries those Gravity picks; at that price, I don't blame them.

That's kinda like saying 'nobody carries Carvin guitars'. They sell direct.

I gave all my other picks away after getting some Gravity's. At $5 each, they are a steal. I can get 5 Gravity picks for the price of ONE Blue Chip pick.

I have to say, I don't play with picks very often, tried them out on your guys' recommendation. I dug the Dava picks, but really dug the Gravity picks. I got a 1.5 and a 3, too light and heavy for me so I ordered a couple of 2's. like I said I don't use them often but I really liked the feel and sound of the gravity picks.

Chris was very nice over email and they got here very quick.

I found Chris to be totally cool. My best bud and former bandmate, Derek from Faultline, has signature picks from Gravity. I will get a picture. Chris can do any special order engraving if you order enough.....

I do really like his picks and need to order a dozen or two more.......they slide right off the strings. I used to be a guitarist so I know about picks, thicknesses and texture, and went through many different sizes, thinckness, and brands. Chris Picks sound awesome on my Spector......and I have no official affiliation with the company

Thanks for the recommendation, guys. I'm going to give the gravity's a try. He should sell them with an optional leash to chronic pick-losers such as myself.
