I don't see why people gotta hate on fender, I mean I thought the Spector club was about acceptance and not hating!
And how can you hate on the guy who made the first mass production electric bass?

I personally have a number of different basses, for any occasion, I used to only play passive P-basses, but have since spread out a bit, though my only actives are Spectors (haz-copy is so warm sounding it might as well be passive!) and from playing everything from the cheapest crap bass to some really nice ones, there is a tone for everyone.

To be honest for buying new I find Squier's mid-priced range of basses (not the super cheap $100 ones) are some of THE best bang-for-your-buck basses brand new.

Used Spectors are still better bang though :D If like me you don't care about wear and tear. Almost completed my collection, just holding out for the right NS-2A...

I have a great idea: let's stop talking about F***ers altogether. This is a Spector thread; if you wanna talk F***der, there are about 600 other threads on TB where you can do that to you heart's content...
 
gosh this sucks so bad. i havent even had one person offer me for that p.o.s. ww. at least on evil bay ive had a couple of nibbles. someone please buy that thing so i can buy the other better bass i want!!!!! hehehehe ;)
 
hey man, been awhile.
man we catch up on all these different bass threads huh? lol

I just came upon this bass for sale here yesterday and went a bit bananas!! Sold a super super rare one of a kind US Lakland tonight on here in 2 hrs to by this baby.
Hoping I love it? :D
I KNOW I love the looks of it.
Drop dead sexy looking bass!! :eek:

It's a Spector, how could you not love it? :bassist:

And a particularly beautiful specimen of a Spector at that!
 
Hey!
Thanks man!
She looks to be a killer bass.
Excited to grip and rip.
:bassist:

Mrfstop... we meet again. You picked a real beauty as your 1st Spector.

Be prepared... S.A.S. may be the strongest force in the bass universe.

I've already owned 7 Spectors and currently have 5... a Forte-4, NS-4, REX4, NS-2A, and NS20004.

I narrowly missed owning a USA bolt-on a few weeks ago.

Still have a whole myriad of models to explore as the S.A.S. fund allows.
 
Thanks... she IS a looker!
That is what made me jump on this one and make it my maiden voyage Spector.
Lots of "curb appeal". lol

Here is a closer shot of the top and finish.
Great figuring in the BEM board too.

Just snagged it off of CL last week for about 1/3 of what I paid for my white Euro LX. She has a few minor dings & scratches, but what an incredible sound! The solid maple wings do give the older ones a bit darker sound with some added low end. Thinking about grabbing a 3rd one in blueburst soon - Spector lust never ends...

Super NICE!!!!:eek:
 
I just sent an email to PJ Rubal at NY Spector.
The sale thread said he Sped'd this bass for some 2011 bass show?
Hope to get down to the NY shop sometime soon, if they will let me check it out?

It was a bass specially built for 2011 Bass Player Live in LA. I am the dealer who originally sold it to Guy. PJ actually was the one that picked out all the specs on that beauty. You've got yourself quite a bass there!!
