Almost sold it a couple of weeks ago. I must have been out of my mind. Easily one of the best basses I have ever played.
I will try tonight.
Had a bit of a problem in the house yesterday.
minor flood problem which got into the heating system and the heat went down last night
I guess it dried out since its working again this morning.
And I was just about to take the Spectors over to my Moms house since I dont want them getting cold...
I will post some clips when I get it done.
Did you find a sweet spot yet?

New pic of my Forte 4...I swear it's growing flames in the maple over night!

Hope all gets fixed quickly!

Anyone know what preamp comes in the NS-2000/4?
I looked here: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
It just says active EQ

Very good thank you,
My black NS2a is in its case with no pickups or strings on it feeling neglected. LOL. buts thats OK she will have a fresh set of emgs in a week or so.
I can only compare this bass with some clips I recorded with my NS2a active/tonepump combo. The prototype has a active/USA haz combo. Both basses sound great. The prototypes tone is a bit "rounder" than the NS2a/tonepump. The prototype is a bit more pleasant to the ears where the NS2a/tonepump is a bit more "rude". There is a difference in wood which obviously would make a difference in tone.
I haven't emailed pj about this bass yet, but a NS2a prototype makes sense. It could be a NS2o prototype, maybe they considered making them in korea.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was a prototype for a model between the ns2a and ns2o. Because of the upgraded wood, upgraded tone circuit, and the schaller bridge is an a upgrade to the ns2a bridges. It's like an upgraded ns2a.
Another weird thing about this bass is it's 1.5" at the nut, like the wimbish model.

My current Spector family.... need to take some new pics
I'm loving that prototype bass... is the neck really thin also?

Mine had the emg BT "active tone" setup. There's 2 dip switches in there that let you alter the EQ curve a bit. I put a pump and emg 35 p/j set in mine. It's pretty beast now. Doesnt get any play time with dougie around though.
