so rebop refin pics... before and after

what ya think??

Wow, that grain looks amazing after the refin. Was that done by the folks at Gerhards?

Well put. I kick myself daily for letting swampy go. Sometimes hourly.

Well....I am going to have to drum up money for a US NS-2 one of these days.....if the Kidney market declines you're my first call.
 
Ya'll might dig this - my modified Spectorcore....

SGD Neo magnetic pickup and the stock Fishman bridge. Added dual Audere preamps - one for each pickup. Stacked controls are VV, TT, MM, BB (custom Siamese twin setup that David Meadows suggested) and mid frequency switches for each. The black switch is series/parallel for the SGD.

There is a lot to like about these basses...especially the weight.

Which SGD pickup is that? I've got a set of Neo3 wides in my NS20004 and love them, sadly they were made just before he started embossing the covers so they are blank.
 
Guys,

Is there a certain day of the week that Spector ships out their completed new US builds? I got word from the store that my bass would be done by the end of last week and they'd drop ship it to me. I paid the rest of my bill and hadn't heard anything yet on tracking numbers. May just be impatience on my end, but I've got SAS bad.

You might want to send an email to [email protected] if you want to find out when it will ship or if it has shipped and your wanted a tracking number, they are very helpful.

That is a beautiful mess! lol It is interesting that you're running it all off 1 9V. Must be hard on the battery!
