You read the title correctly. This is a euro made Spector for the mid 90's and it is a very rare 34" scale Chech produced 5 string. The bass itself is in fantastic condition for it's age. The finish does show it's age in terms of some scratches (nothing major) on the back. The front it remarkably clean. Structurally it's perfect!
I'm only looking to sell this as I'm trying to fund a new custom build so trades are off the table here. Quality-wise, you're essentially looking at the predecessor to the Euro LX5. Same level of quality and craftsmanship, but at a significantly lower price point.
Explainer on hardware. Prior to setting my eyes on a custom build, I was in the process of changing the hardware over to chrome, one because I felt it looked better, but two becasue the modern hardware available for these is sooooooo much lighter than what it came with. The bridge is a Euro LT bridge I purchased new from Korg/Spector. I also had some chrome strap buttons laying around so I added those. I was going to get some of the newer light wieght schaller tuners, but held off when I decided to sell. You could still do that should you choose. Cost on a new set would be around $150. I'm still including the original bridge if you wanted to go back to the original all gold look.
Just by changing the bridge the weight dropped from right around 11lbs, to 10.2. If you get the new tuners, I'm sure the whole bass would be in the 9.8 - 9.9 range.
Specs:
Body & Neck Maple
Rosewood fretboard
34" scale
EMG 40 pickups
EMG BTS Preamp
Weight 10.2 lbs
I will include a gigbag of some kind.
Had a question on the finish. It's Purple, not blue.
Price: 1500 OBO shipped via Paypal F&F or Zelle
Note: I have some flexibility here. If you have a cash offer, run it by me.
