SPECTOR® Club - Part 52

[JPSBassist]

Chris may have been joking about knowing his wife has great taste because she married him, he sincerely is a great guy and a good friend. So I actually think the fact she brought him his NS-2 and married him is all the proof I need.

Besides I know Andrea and she does have great taste.

So what's the eyebrow about?

Yes, Bernard Harvey is Justin Bieber's bassist. Has been from day one.
He's been a Spector artist for over 2 years and plays the Legend-6 Classic and the Coda-5 Standard.
He's a very professional, talented guy and he loves Spector.

I hope Benard stays away from that wacky tobaccy. Watching the news today, it seems the Beebs can be a bad influence.

Hey...
I'm having trouble recognizing the dude on this page.
It says his name is Omer. But I don't know...
I thought Omer had been kidnapped on Easter Island.

These are going to be SWEET! They should be coming out soon. I was thinking of pre-ordering one of those but I prefer a 1.5" nut.

left the cancer center in chicago today and as a treat my girl took me to bass club of chicago (i think thats the name) and the guy just opened a box from spector. to my suprise it was #8 of 30... i was the first to play it as far as i know. the chrome on white just pops to me. all i can say is this cancer better get out NOW so i can get back to work and aquire one of these! or any of the beautiful spectors i got to handle and play today. the sales guy was so awesome. we really clicked and i could of talked for hours and played his basses!

That's an amazing quilt but way-overpriced for a Euro. $3500 puts you squarely into US-made territory.

Still, some nice drool-worthy Spector porn...

When Euros make it to Norway, because of import taxes and all that lovely stuff they end up costing $6,265.59. This is about 35,000kr. I have to pay twice the price on things I like just because of my geograhpical location, nobody had better complain about prices now.

I'm guessing the spectorbass website isn't done yet?

 

[JeffplaysBass]

What can I say? Between working two full time jobs in the field of mental health/special education and trying to keep up with my five year old gorl and thirteen year old boy, be a good husband and dad.......I find less and less time to dedicate to mastery of the bass.......lol..........hence I consider myself a passable bassist that actually made it to a couple real studios and am on a couple albums that actually have some distribution......lol. I guess I just got lucky........that and being nice, responsible and reliable with a good attitude can really make my passable skills seems bigger and badder........hahaha

At this point I need to move all my stage gear and their roadcases, as it looks like my time might be spent giving my son guitar lessons.............GASP

I need to research those new glocks! I am going to try my Mesa m6 this week at the gig with the DC equipped euro which also has the us18v pre......I'm bringing the tfunk because I'm concerned that with the mega pillowy lows the Mesa brings, coupled with the DC and 18 v.....I might have too much low??? Is this possible? Lol. I will be using my Aguilar db112 and db112 NT.....for reference

Yikes!
So you could SAVE money by flying to the US and going home with a Spector as your carry-on, no?
Or would they still nail you with the import fees upon arrival home??

They could nail me with it on the way back, but they have to prove it and so do I. It's a risky situation. The best thing to do is go with an old bass, sell it over there and come back with the new one. Then you've got the records of leaving with a bass

But you're right. I could indeed save some cash. If I had a place to sleep that wasn't a hotel and I bought used

I've got a couch in Seattle to trade for a lunch & some lessons while you're here. BassNorthwest (where I bought my Spector) is 2miles away,
+ there's 3 Guitar Centers within 20. Not to mention pawn shops a few other Mom & Pop guitar places with some great stuff.
Surely my Wife will understand if it's Spector/Bass related Summertime is spectacular here
