Fender guy here, looking forward to my new bass and joining the club as I had a chance over the weekend to check out a similar bass and was really impressed with the feel and playability, can't wait, also wanted to say how helpful Mike and everyone here has been in making me feel comfortable with my decision to purchase what I did not know was his first Spector bass, promise to take good care of it, be back as soon as I get to play, Vinny

VERY NICE! I started my Spector collection with a Legend 4! Great bass for the money!

Just a word of advice, Spector's are highly addictive!!! I've owned 6 in 7 years and about to order a custom BO from the NY factory!

Our singer is adamant about wanting to change the name of our band... he doesn't like having it named after him (The Chris Feller Band). So we've come up with a few possibles and if you'd be so kind as to give your input as to which you like the best. Just follow the link and vote for one:

Hey whats up guys?! Decided to throw some pics up of my new to me Spector Legend 6 with a bubinga top.

These are pretty much straight out of the box. I've been too busy playing it to take time away to clean it. This is my first Spector and I gotta admit, I am very impressed.

All it needs now is a good once over with some cleaner, a set of DR Black Beauties and a setup. Although I can't do a setup because I have absolutely no idea what size truss rod tool I need or what size allen key is needed for the bridge, lol. If anyone knows, please give me a heads up.

When I first saw the Ad for the White NS-2A, I got very excited, my first Spector (That I still have, it's black now and beat up pretty bad) was a White NS-2A. I have always wanted another one, but it had to be the "Right" one. Lots of them are really beat up, I wanted one that was in good shape that I could play and not do anything to.

I was excited until I saw Steve's asking price, just out of the question for me for that bass. Than after JPS talked to him, I PM'ed him and told him if he was looking to sell it at closer to the going price for an NS-2A, I would be interested. He PM'ed me back and then we talked on the phone for about 45 minutes. I can say Steve seems like a very nice guy, and I believe he honestly didn't know what it was worth. I don't believe he was trying to rip anyone off and now that I have bought the bass :bassist: :bassist: he has been nothing but up front and great to deal with.

He is going through some pretty heavy medical stuff, I can relate. He really doesn't want to sell the bass, but has to, and he has a MTD he loves he is keeping, but he does want to get another Spector when the time comes he is back on his feet.

Not starting anything here, just letting you know he seems like a stand up guy and has been great to deal with. Once I get the bass I hope it is in the condition he says it is, I will hopefully let you know that the bass is as awesome as he says it is. I told him we will welcome him into the Spector club when the day comes he gets another one.

This is interesting. I was reading the Blabbermouth web site and they mentioned that a New Jersey metal band named Attacker has a new bass player. What does this have to do with Spector you say? Check out the bass he is holding.

I am not familiar with this band but I'll have to check them out since they are from my state.
