How common is a Spector Fretless bass?

[bezo420]

I have an old NS5CRFM unlined fretless bass. I love it, but I don't play it much these days. I've been playing a fretted 4 string in my latest project, so it sits in it's case these days. I put it on CL to see what's out there, but I'm not set on getting rid of it. I'm worried I won't find another one.

How common is a Euro fretless? I know they made the Spectorcore fretless, but what about the Euro fretless? Is it special order only, or do they turn some out from time to time? Does anyone else have a fretless Spector bass?

I might be interested in it if you want to ship it depending on where you are of course. PM or email me if you do.

As to the number of fretless Spectors out there, you should post in the Spector club thread. I'm sure those guys would have answers for you.

+1, The Spector folks are both helpful and informative.

Do post some pics of your fretless Spector if you can, I don't think there are many around. I did at one time own a fretless 4 Spectorcore. Well made instrument, capable of some surprising fretless sounds very similar to double bass. Some day I'd like to try a 5-str Spectorcore fretless, and if I could get my hands on a regular Spector 5str fretless, I'd give it a try too.

What preamp does yours have? And any chance you could post some sound clips of your fretless Spector?

I've seen very few... and have looked.

Not common at all, in my observation. I wouldn't mind having a look at one.

Post it on TB, and put a comment in the Spector thread. You'll sell it in a week.

Not really sure I want to sell it. I listed it to see what's out there, but now that I have a new job, I think I'm going to keep it.

I have pics on my phone, but I can't get them to upload. I'm going to have to get on a computer sometime to get pics on here.

It has a Bartolini preamp with the EMGs. I normally gut that stuff and run passive, but I never touched this one. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Here's some shots of my Fretless with my two other NS2000/4s.

And why not some of me rocking it.
