I wouldn't play a bass like that. It doesn't have any strings.:hiding::p

OH MAN! I knew I forgot something!

I've gotta say Bob, you've had some killer basses from when I joined TB up until now. Whats in your Spector collection nowadays? I wish I had the $$ to pick up that unlined freless Blue 5er you had for sale for a while.

I remember when I first joined TB Bob had the purtiest green Spector 5r I'd ever laid my eyes on! I remember seeing one of his pics that had a red, blue, green and White? Back then I had my Legend 4 Classic and I felt so small compared to the guys back then...but now I know I didn't have any reason to feel that way back then. I had a drooling problem BIG time though:D
 
I'm going to second that motion. Those are such great basses for the money. I don't think there is another bass out there that can touch the ns-94/5 or ns2k4/5 for the bang for the buck. Ns2a's too but I haven't had the luxury of playing one of those.
+1! I'm with you on that those, including the NS-2A, which I've had as well. I've had the pleasure of owning the NS-95, NS-2000/5 as well. Amazing basses! And they all had very low string action. The NS-95 was my second 5 string Spector and that I was thoroughly impressed with overall.:bassist:
 
I put some more time on the Kilo yesterday. I like the tone but it doesnt seem to have the out but of my GKs. Even the 800RB seems to have more power. I am currently only running one side of it so its not putting out any were near its 1000 watts. It 500 watts a side at 2ohms and Im running a 4ohm cab. I need to pick up a speakon so I can bridge it.

Or I can pick up 3 more 810 cabs and run 2 off each side. :D

My vote is for option #2! :D:bassist::bassist::bassist:
 
I am Spectorless. :( I hope to change that soon. I would like to get a fiver, but I just need to find one that doesn't weigh a ton. ;)

Bob.. My last 2 new solid color EURO5's were MUCH lighter. They don't break your back like my previous ones but something about the heavier ones…. Fuller in the mix.
 
GOOD GAWD that's one FINE looking bass guitar!!! :bassist:

I really have no need for another 4 string but man I see pics like this and just WANT.

Chrome and Ebony go beautifully together holy crap!

Jeff congrats. the ebony and the finish and the chrome. that's up there in the top two or three spectors I've ever seen.

Damn Beautiful. Im not a fan of purple, but that chrome and ebony turned me around, i dont know what it is about it that does what it does to me. Damn.

Fantastic, Iris used that same work station....great picture!

Jeff, that Ebony FB with abalone inlays just makes that UV just POP!!! SEXY!!! :hyper::cool:

Thanks alot guys! UPS has it now and I'll get it on Tuesday. I'll be taking it out to an open mic night at a local club and get it on stage right away.

I find it interesting that the bass was signed by Stuart a few week BEFORE my NS-5XL.

Any of you Spector experts can tell me the model and maybe year range of a 5er?


I'm having a problem posting a picture but, it looks EXACTLY like a Legend Classic with Black Cherry curly maple top with gold hardware and EMZ-HZ pickups.

The ONLY thing is, the neck pu is looks like a single coild and the bridge is a humbucker. Can't find it anywhere but, I have seen a view for sale in the past.

Any info on this?

Thanks for anything.

Most likely a Legend 5 from the 2004-2006 era.
