Spector Club - Part 16

[bobunit]

yeah, but how much is the property tax or income tax?!? If they don't get ya one way, they'll get you another....

True dat!

I think I might offload the DCs. I'm down with the sound of my bass. Besides, if I need a little more growl, I can hit the boost and boost the mids a little.

I'll buy them from you if you decide to sell.

Its less than California ... about the same as Washington ...
And unless you own property its no concern.... definitely the taxes we do have are not enough to make me want to move elsewhere .
I have lived in CA, OR, WA, and Utah. So my experience isn't that narrow.

Oh and did I mention ... we are a gun friendly state and we allow fully automatic weapons

I can't believe we're almost at part 17 already. This has to be the most active club on talkbass

looks like there is a link in his signature

 

[grendle]

I'm really leaning toward this one......

 

[JeffplaysBass]

Sign me up for a couple of the first ones!! I LOVE the crowns down the back like a spine. Those are sick.

I second the first one is better, also like the crowns down the back and front is also killer!

Euro 4 LX 35" scale. correct?

Very nice, I like the black hardware on the gloss black

Agreed. FWIW even though they are instrumentally correct in their current form they would appear more anatomically correct if they were flipped top to bottom, small to large neck to waist.

Does that mean you're not gonna fight me for the next available black NS-2A now?

 

[madbassplaya]

Since SPECTOR doesn't make an upright it's OK... right?

I had to share this with you guys.

SICK. It's the only word I can think of.

This guy is beyond brilliant. And he's a super nice guy to boot.

Ok, I'm considering replacing the HZs in my Rebop for active DCs. I have the older model Tone Pump. Is this an easy operation? Do any pots have to be replaced?

I'm going to take it to a tech, but I want to understand the procedure.

 

[iceboxbass]

Wow...Our sale taxes here are 12%
When I brought my Forte back from Seattle they KILLED me with that tax.

Here in Mi. sales tax is only 6%.

Hi Guys,

Unfortunately I had to sell my Rebop 5 but before I sold it, I had a fretless neck made for it by Spector, it's brand new and has never been mounted, played on etc.

If anyone is interested I've got it listed here

Thanks

Oh no...sorry to hear that Henry! So do you have any SPECTORS left? Chin up bro!

Its actually a very simple procedure.

The HZ EMGs Vol pots are either 250K or 500K.
The Active DCs will run on 25K Vol pots.
The TonePump circuit will connect the same way with its current bass and treble pots.
The Active EMGs will need power and will connect into the battery that is already in the bass for the TonePump.

So bacially its the swapping of the 2 volume pots and connecting the new pickups to them and to the battery.

 

[iceboxbass]

Y'all need to move to Oregon ...
Our sales tax is ... 0%
yep ZERO! NADDA, ZIP!

I hear Portland is very nice this time of year!

Yep yep yep...there's alway a trade off! :scowl:
