SPECTOR® Club - Part 62

[djaxup]

I am desperately looking for a 9V US Circuit, sadly they are not available atm from Spector. Does anyone happen to have one spare?

I'd also take a normal Tonepump (with trim pot) if anyone in europe has one. For the 9V US Circuit I'd pay the costly transfer from US to Europe, but not for the pump

hah, jade plays nice with others, she knows she is my number one so she doesn't mind letting others get some lime light.

This is the inherent issue with having now 5 spectors... which do I play live? lol

Let the Spector call you my son, you will feel which one is to be selected! lol

OK so upon a friend's recommendation I listened to the new album by a band called Scale the Summit, and wow is it great technical/prog instrumental work.

The bass sits beautifully in their mix and has real growl. Sounds like Spector to me. Anyone in the club fans of these guys, know if it is actually Spector bass in this band? Because if not it should be.

Listened to an older album but the bass didn't sound as growly or punchy, maybe it was a recent addition?


edit: for your ears it is available streaming here http://www.metalinjection.net/av/stream-the-new-scale-the-summit-album-right-now

Thanks for the recommendation. Listening to this now and am really liking it so far.

I think quite a few folks, myself included, would pay a pretty penny for a US9V. I just don't think any are getting on the market.

I just sold a tonepump, but they pop up regularly I'd say.

Very cool. Just downloaded it from Amazon.

Just got home from practice with the new NS2A I got from Keith (loend68). Man, this thing plays and feels alot like jade, but its lighter, and has a little different tone. Its nice and growly, nice sizzle on the highs. It really sounds great. I'm going to use it for my show this weekend. I put my strings on it and I really have got it dialed in... and the neck, its the thinnest neck of any NS2A I've owned (I've owned 3). I'm very impressed by this bass, I need to string up Jade with some new strings and start checking output levels because this bass is seeing some shows. I'm glad I rethunk buying this bass. Keith is a great guy to do business with too. And something I love is that it has the Spector by Kramer case... to me that is a cool piece of history.

Glad you like it! It's a good one for sure! It would have been hard to give up if it weren't for it's replacement

I swear this is my last Scale the Summit post for now, as I don't wanna be spamming up the place since I just got into these guys, but I found some live vids and it looks like he's upgraded the Legend 6 from the SSD pickups to EMG.
(could be wrong thats what it looks like to me)

I know guys in the have said the Legend still gets great Spector tone even being a low-budget model, but I didn't quite believe it until hearing this guy, it has growl for days. Seems if you want an affordable 6, this is the way to go.

 

[bunkaroo]

I thought I saw a classifieds post where he was selling a Legend 6 recently.

Oh nice, dang, good price too.

I hope this doesn't mean he's going to something non-Spector

man, that thing sounds good... non stock electronics too:

(2) EMG 45JX pickups and an EMG BQC System

 

[Basstovsky]

I've never been able to handle a 6 with my hands (not small, but fingers arent all that long) but I still kind of want to pick up that Legend he's selling, gnarly tone.

We crank them for breakdown music when we play. The clubs are getting used to it....

 

[AdamR]

Asian Hooker is a great song

Hey Guys,
Mark from Scale The Summit is using an Acacia custom 6 string bass now and is endorsed by them. I'm not sure if he uses Spector basses anymore. Jordan their first bass player used Peavey Cirrus USA basses and Eden amps FWIW.
Take Care,
Brent
