I'm a Forte owner and, honestly, it's one of my (if not thee) favorite Spector I've owned. Just a stripped down muscle car....no frills, all tone.

So, so, so very true. Preach-on, brother Lee. I like Fortes so much that I'm getting one with a whole extra string for /even lower/ Forte punch-in-the-gut-ness. :)


That red spalt gets me every time! :bassist: I freakin' love that!
 
I just read the 3 greatest words. Out For Delivery !

Donny has another case of SAS so to help a brother out Im trying hard to sell my fenders for him LOL. Ill be buying the black one. Then hopefully I should be good with basses for the year LOL

Awesome man! And don't worry folks, my one of a kind Jade CRFM is not the one going.
 
An LX 4, a forte 4, and a US bolt-on are on my someday list, but I hope to slowly aquire them while also keeping what I have. That's the plan anyway... Oh yeah, and maybe a Rex....

I get that but LimaGuy's sound clips confirmed what I have long suspected. That all Spectors are far closer in sound than different. Even the JJ and NS-4 sounded pretty close (although deeper) to the stock Forte-4 OBP-2 and NS-2 USA 9V. The stock Forte-4 is a another real sleeper. I might even prefer that one over anything else.

My long term goal is to keep my vintage Fender and add a Woodstock Spector and NYC Sadowsky. That will be variety. For me. Everybody else's YMMV.
