SPECTOR® Club - Part 74

[awilkie84]

Hmmm... never shipped to Canada. What's involved?

PM'd you.

I'd have to say by the looks probably Aguilars. Weird though...when I was talking to PJ about a Coda 5 P bass he mentioned they'd be using EMGs as that's what their template was cut for. Aguilars must be the same size, maybe?

Yes, I think they're the same size. I think Spector's ramping up their relationship with Aguilar and putting their pups in many of the NAMM basses.

That Coda P Bass = Drool. Man I want to try it!!!

First sightings of the Coda P in the wild on Facebook. Wow!

Wonder if a Coda Pro P is in the works?

I feel real lucky to have landed this bass for Guitar House.net.
This does have the Aguilar P pickup with the Aguilar OBP-2. So
it is passive/active.

There is no P 5-string for the show. Just not enough time to get
one worked out and finished.

Is this what I think it is?

Sure looks like Ho's bass to me.

Trying to make $600 on the deal. More if Ho sold it for less than the ad he put up.

Todd - does this one have the Coda Jazz neck profile, or is it chunkier like a Precision?

GO Broncos!

Definitely Ho's Forte - it should have stayed in the club family...


GO Broncos!

It is a bigger neck, more like a precision. From when I originally spoke with PJ the spec was 1.62" at the nut. So not as chunky as the old precisions but more along the lines of the current American Standard P.

Totally. Damn!

Hey all you Spector owners,
I just received my new Spector euro 4 lx and the action is a little high for my taste. I loosened both set screws and the saddle does not drop down any further. I see plenty of air under the set screws but wonder if I am missing something. I have done my own set ups for awhile now and am just a bit baffled and do not want to mess up a bass I have wanted for 20 years. And I know I have to post a pic or it did not happen!! I will put one up shortly. Sooo glad to finally own one...

There are screws on the sides of the bridge which must also be loosened.
One on each side.

 

[Bassil]

Thank you very much....I was not sure if those just keep the saddles from falling out...btw..how do you intonate the bridge that does not have the intonation screw on the rear of the bridge??

Once the side screw(s) are loose, I use the allen wrench in the saddle screws as a lever to slightly move the saddles. Once you do it a few times you'll get it.

 

[Bassil]

Cool...first bridge like this I have ever messed with. Can I also say how freaking cool this bass is! Played it through my TH350 and it was all oozy gooey thick and chewy!

There are P/J Coda Pros. I haven't heard of just a P Coda Pro.

That is beautiful! Very nice!

Also you'll want to check the neck relief...that in conjunction with adjusting the bridge saddles will give you lower/higher string height/action. Welcome to our Spector Family!
