Got my hands on this Euro 435 LX today.

Thanks guys! I'm generally anti-rosewood boards but this bass plays and sings so nice and the price was so good I had to cave in

Welcome to the club! Very nice looking Euro. And it's definetely not Euro435LX, because 435LX is a PJ-pups with 35". This one is called Euro4LX-TW it has two EMG-TW35 dual humbackers and it's 34" scale if you look at position of the bridge. Guys, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks for the info. I'm not married to the idea of it being a 35, but from string anchor point to nut it does measure out to 35". I hadn't seen a non PJ 35 (I would've preferred PJ to be honest) before I wondered about that. The gentleman I bought it from claims to have gotten it directly from a Spector Artist rep, but I have no way of validating that so who knows.

***(I would've preferred PJ to be honest)

Not sure what what transpired between you and PJ but he's always honest.

If you give him the serial number he will give you all the info on model, year, etc.

The good news is with the EMG makes P and J pickups, in a few different varieties, in their 35 humbucker housing...it would be an easy swap

Two's a good number! Here's a shot of my pair, the Rex 5 has the creative cuts decal inlays now. They aren't on perfect but they're really only on for my eyes anyway.

Once again, a comma makes a huge difference!

So true.

Like the difference illustrated between the two following sentences, punctuation can save lives....

"Let's eat Grandma!"

Or....

"Let's eat, Grandma!"

I'm in with my new Euro ReBop

Thanks to Seth at Sam Ash Richmond for turning me on to these masterpieces...

Thanks buddy!

Never even would've heard of the inlays if it wasn't for this club so once again Im very thankful to be a member!

That (on a Spector bridge) would be about right.
But the scale is measured from the nut only to the witness point on the bridge saddle, not to the "anchor point".

Strange....because if you look at this 35" Spector TW picture, the bridge is closer to the edge of the body. It is seen if you compare the bridge position against the control knobs position.

Ooops! My bad... Sorry!
