Details

Selling this Spector Ethos 5 in amazing condition. Great neck, comfier than the euros as it’s thinner, great tone from the Aguilars, way nicer than I was expecting! It has what I can only describe as a um “Syrupy” tone? I mean that in the best way possible, Like there’s a thick wetness to the tone that really fills the sonic space in the mix much differently than many other basses. The highs cut through the mix while the thickness of the bass frequencies fill up mix very nicely. All in all these Korean Ethos’ are no joke, yes those of you who have played Euros and USAs will notice a slight difference in hardware, but other than that, this bass is built to match its 2k sticker price. Fretwork is immaculate, the finish is beautiful, pickups and electronics rip, feels lightweight without feeling insubstantial!
I am the second owner.

Lemme guess, you bought one the verb? Haha trust me I’ve been there

My first preference was for the 4 string reverse P. I have some great 5 strings already but at this price, it was worth it.

I was able to get a new, but blemished (can't see the blemish in the pix) from American Musical, for slightly less than this, but not much. At this price, it's a GREAT DEAL.

I think it's odd, I've seen a few of these with factory finish blemishes in both Interstellar color offerings.

I think its just the fact that much more of these are produced than euro and USA models so the probability of a few coming out with blemishes is much higher. I recall seeing some B stocks going for a bit more than I'm selling this one for on Reverb, awesome you were able to get a better deal on one though!

Best price I've seen on a 5 string. I play 4 strings 80% of the time, so the ones I have cover my needs. If I needed 1 more 5, this would have been it!
