Spector Forte 5 string bass with upgraded wide (.75" / 19mm) spacing.
Also upgraded with an Ebony fingerboard.
Comes with a Spector hard case.
2017 build, signed by Stuart Spector himself
(although he forgot to put "Wide" on the headstock model blerb).
Comes with an extra EMG P5 pickup.
Currently has two EMG 40DC pickups.
Quick connects let you switch the pickups around in minutes.
Has a HAZ Labs 18 volt pre.
This bass was originally built for Bryan Beller (Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen, etc.),
and later owned by Kelly Lemieux (Buckcherry).
I've been playing Spectors since the 80's and this one is by far the best playing one I've ever owned.
The problem is I've had some health issues and at 10.4 pounds it gets a little heavy for me.
Otherwise I'd be buried with it.
A couple of small nicks that are hard to see on the back.
It has very small fingerboard dots.
Matte Black.
Spector has recently discontinued the Forte line, but if this bass were built today,
it would seem to spec out at around $6.5K.
Used Spectors continue to appreciate, so my trade value is going to be $3500.
Possible trades (+ cash): A Spector Euro or USA 4 string. Possibly a 6 string.
Would prefer oil or matte finish and must be 9 pounds or less.
An electric upright might be a possible partial trade also.
Thanks.
