Here's something I thought I'd never say...

It looks like I might be trading for a Spector Mike Kroeger Signature 5 string. I've got somewhat mixed feelings about this. On one hand it is a 5 string Spector which is a good thing. On the other hand it's a guy's sig model of a band I don't care for.

If I end up digging this bass, I'm curious if I can cover the "M" inlay as I think it looks tacky. Love the double "S" at the 12th fret though.

If I don't dig it, anyone interested in buying it. :D

The "M" inlay can stand for madbassplaya :hiding: :bassist: :D

Played a gig Sat night and was using Brownie. I had my Spector shirt on for the gig bc I already had it on from the day and it was going to be a truncated set for us anyway so I didn't dress too fancy...

After the show I had a guy come up and go "Hey are you endorsed by Spector??" I was like haha no but in my mind I am! :D My toane ruled as always.

Brownie-> Mesa M9-> Mesa PH212 cab :bassist:

I agree. I dont think it has to do with the bass, It seems like noting is selling on ebay anymore.

Being that they've been over pricing them lately it doesn't surprise me.:ninja: Plus being the Holiday season...

Seriously, if I did dig it and wanna keep it, would there be a way to cover it? Lol
Click to expand...

they have those furniture "touch up" pens people use on dots but that is kinda big...

but seriously you could have creative-cuts make you "A,D,B,A,S,S,P,L,A,Y,A" decals :) or one to cover the 3rd fret...

I have read threads on replacing inlays, but they were replacing with the same shape inlays

saw this on another forum

The best way would be to get access to a drill press, and CAREFULLY drill out the dot inlays. *Then get some rosewood plugs and glue them in with an epoxy, sand to match the shape of the fretboard and Voila! *If you first make up a batch of rosewood sanding dust, and mix this in with the epoxy, you will have a colour matched filler in case the rosewood plugs don't fit perfectly. *Just make sure you glue in the plugs with the grain running the same as the fretboard or up close it will be fairly noticable.

might be doable even with the "M"

How do Spector's sound through the Ampeg Svt-3Pro's?
I've read some pretty bad things about this, but some pretty good things, too. I really want tubes, and these seem pretty affordable.
Thanks, Nate

If a SPECTOR bass sounds like crap via a certain amp... It's the amp. Especially tube amps, they have to be tuned... plate voltage, load, biasing, etc....

I might be biased, but....
