SPECTOR® Club - Part 25

[JeffplaysBass]

So many nice ones for sale.............I want your 84 ns2!

That is more than double the $$$ than the Ian Hill, haha!!

 

[Mr.Bassie720]

My taxes are finally done so it won't be long before this fine specimen is mine.

In my humble opinion this has taken over as THE sexiest Spector in the club. I am sure there is something somewhere about not lusting after another man bass. Very difficult. This bass would temp a monk!
Congrats!

 

[worshiprocker]

Yes, so I can give Todd a couple $KK down on a ns2.

Agh I wish I was rich

Do you want a suv? Lol

Agreed

 

[JeffplaysBass]

I have a damn Suv and its a gas guzzler, haha

 

[cjmodulus]

It's a personal preference thing but I honestly don't think black hardware would look as good on my blue Euro 5LX

Yeah, I dig blue and gold too. I love the shade of blue they use on the euros. Every one ive seen has been stunning!

Congrats!

+1, and I don't like green basses...but that one is hot!!

 

[Basstovsky]

In regards to hardware colors, gold works on some finishes, like black or white (I think black pops better on the white) darker colors it looks nicer than light, and I never thought it looked appropriate on natural finishes, though i've seen a few that were nice.

Love the black hardware on my natural finished NS20004!

The only color I think gold always clashes with is green its just too...bling.
The 'awkward teal' of that Fiver is far enough from green to look nice.

Hence why the Matte Green Forte I have on order will look great with the black Forte hardware

Here is a sound clip comparison of the Tonepump wired at 9 volts and at 18 volts and also the OBP2.

1- Tonepump 9volts 50% Trim
2- Tonepumo 18volts 40% Trim
3- OBP2 9volts

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

Opinions on the 9 vs th 18? I cant decide if I like it better or not.

Yeah the mix is a little bass heavy. You can hear the notes other than the E break up a little more on the 9v . The 18v is a little more guttural. Neither sounds like mine. Any way you could record them again a little flatter with one of the signature Lima bass riffs? Say bass n treb about 60% roll that blend knob forward just a bit too

That is a very cool green! Grendle approved!

 

[grendle]

Lol , it quoted the map , thought we were sharing my goof anyway , the 2a blows the Rex away in tone and output . So I've been using it . Been thinking about selling one or both and getting another euro .

Problem is , I've only seen 2 other red Rex's , one 4 , one 5 .

Why not put emg's and a haz in the rex?

I like em both on the green . The gold blings , and the black is more stealth.

I was actually thinking of doing that myself. I mentioned it on here and i think someone may have said they weren't sure if the Haz would line up correctly with the holes on the Rex though.

True. The pump works also imo. Id like to pick up a rex and put a p/j set in it with the pump or haz. Should sound cool, there's a lot of wood there.

ya I wouldn't hesitate to pick up a rex if the price was right.... I played one and it was awesome!

 

[jarrod cunningham]

Don't get me wrong this bass sounds awesome ! It's just compared to the haz copy and the SD pups that's in the 2a that have got that dream sound . I have totally thought about the mighty might ore and a set of better than the hz pups . I have got to decide 100 percent to keep it before I drop the money in it .

That red is super rare. In 10+ years that's the only one I've ever seen. That's a no brainer on keeping it imo.

I hear ya... if you want to see if the MM copy fits, I'll take some measurements of mine... I don't know what the cavity on the rex looks like tho...

Ya that thing is sweet. I think I'm going to keep an eye out for one in 4 string to add to my collection.


lol I need to save up for all my spector SAS

I agree with Grendle. That one is rare and I think you would kick yourself if you sold it. Plus, you probably wouldn't be able to get what you wanted for it since everyone seems to want to low ball people when buying things so it would just frustrate you.

I say try a different pre and pickups and that would really make a difference.
