Very Cool!
Thank you
Not sure when, but apparently it'll be done VERY soon as it's an oil finish (according to Lima)
I know the gloss finishes take a while to complete, the Oil finish should be fairly quick and that looks just about done, Frets, Inlays are all in already.
Just need to add the bridge, PUPs and Oil Finish and someone will be playing a NS-2.
P.S.
Please Don't leave the Forte Club

No way I'll never leave the club!
Though at some point....I may get the US circuit put in the Forte
Congrats all that got new basses!
I forgot to add some photos of my bass by the start of this thread, so here comes a few taken today by myself.
That's a nice NS20004 you got there, the black on black makes it super stealth!
Mine's natural finish and I love the thing to death (though I have the haz-copy preamp, not the stock one)
All black ns2...black everything!!!
Black hardware, paint (Gloss?) how about the inlays, Black or Abolone.
Sounds like its going to be one tuff bass...

You seem excited....do we know specifics, or are we waiting until it crosses the border to you?
Okay, my bad, didn't see the pics because they are blocked here at school, sorry...
I will not be crossing that Canadian border anytime soon, the last time I was in Canada I was DEPORTED!!
I was filling in for 2 weeks with a country band years ago, like the mid 90's. (Had my NS-2A and my SVT with 2 8-10 cabinets with, a little overkill.)We were playing 2 weeks, the first week in Winnipeg, the second week in Thunder Bay. Without telling us, the leader of the band only got us all one week clearance to work in Canada when we went over the border. The Saturday of week 2 in Thunder Bay, the Border Patrol came and got us and deported us for working as illegal aliens. The band leader paid a fine for all of us, then we went and played the last night...It was awesome...
at least at school here when they do the little "Betcha didn't know this about_____" game at the beginning of the year, no one ever guesses I was "Deported from a country for working as an illegal alien".
I just got some contact info from JPS, I don't mind paying for strings if they are really worth it. If anything, I'd like to try them to satisfy my curiosity. I had LaBella flats on an older six string I had, they costs almost $100 bucks too, but they were awesome strings!!

That's an awesome story! Wow, Winnipeg and and Thunder Bay...EEEK. You should have played Vancouver
I always say that anything East of the Rockies here is a waste of time. Well, the Maritime Provinces are nice too. But the flat piece of cardboard that is Calgary to Ontario is SOOOO BORING! Thanks!
Yeah, I really love mine too. Do you still have the EMG HZ pups? Do you have any soundclips of it? Would love to hear how it sounds with the Haz copy.

Very nice!!
You definitely are correct there stjohn. Just in this thread alone, a bunch of Spectors have been bought over the past few months and it's only going to get better. People will start getting their tax returns very soon and we all know what that means.....more Spector's. I will definitely be one of those people
I came sooo close today to buying a gorgeous Legend 5 custom with J pup at neck M pup at bridge $299.99! I used great restraint!!!
I swapped out the EMG pickups for pickups made by SGD. The EMG-Hz's sounded ok, but these are more of a big fat passive p-bass sounding pickup than full range humbuckers. When i got it it was gutted, but I had a set of Hzs lying around, i assume they are all the same.
