Well guys, it's here! My first European spector, and it doesn't disappoint! Sorry for the crappy iphone pics BTW.

As nice as she is, it's gonna take some adjustment to get used to four strings again. She may even get swapped for a 5er at some point in the future, bot not for a while. I'm just gonna enjoy her and play her like there's no tomorrow. Gonna set her up for D standard when I get the chance!

And a shoutout to jmattbassplaya! It was great dealing with you! I hope the Modulus serves you well

I received notice today from PJ they are shipping my Coda 5 DLX to me tomorrow! We are leaving tomorrow for Columbus, Ohio to our daughters home until after Christmas. I sent our daughters address to BC just in time yesterday, in case the Coda shipped while we are gone. Anyone here live in Columbus or near by? We'll be there for 3 weeks. It'd be great to get together with some club members. Especially if you have some gigs, I'd love to go and enjoy some Spector goodness!

+1! OBP-2&3!

Great! I cant wait to see that Spalted Beauty
I've looked at the pic of your Spalted body quite a bit to get some idea of what kinda grain my Euro will have. If you Google Spalted Maple Spector in images, your Bass pops up

I to am looking forward to getting a call/email from Todd when my euro is ready but that will be at least another month or so

The ski cap/beanie is one size fits all and the ball cap has a pretty broad range on the adjustable belt in the back. The ski cap is my favorite of the two, but certainly won't work when it's warm. Opposite applies to the beanie obviously. As you are an endorsing artist Chris, my vote is for both!

As I've said before, I just don't dig the rebops. Your MM ReBop completely changes my tune.... That color, that top... It's almost burled... The fretboard and inlays...

I'm dreaming of one with a regular EMG MM, a Seymour Duncan MM pre, keeping the coil tap pot if possible...

Congrats on the bass and the endorsement!

I listed the original black hardware, tuners and bridge, from my NS-2A in the classifieds.
I'm going to use the funds from selling them to get the gold Schaller tuners I need to finish my NS-2A conversion over to gold hardware.
Check em' out.

When it comes to Spectors I've never had a bad "B" string. NS-95 SSD 34", ReBop 5 DLX 35", Forte 5 35".

Haha. I got a ski cap from PJ at BPL one year. I might have to pick up the hat now

Cool! That looks great for the $$$.

I am using the Digitech IPB-10 with my iPad. Anyone looking for a cool toy with lots of usable effects for bass, the IPB is worth a look.

Especially for $99! Regular $399! I don't know if they still have that sale. This was a Black Friday or Cyber Monday sale.

Nice bass! I almost bought that one! But I was on the hunt for a P bass so I passed. Congratulations!

Oh, almost forgot...that's a Legend 5 built in Korea. Email PJ Rubal with the serial # and he'll give you when it was built.

Chris, that is one delicious and gorgeous NS-2! Wow! Dazzling!
