Spector Club (Part 2)

Where's my club number?

Barred for dismemberment

Barred for dismemberment

I'm not the only one who owns a Spector without a HAZLAB pre.

I'm not the only one who owns a Spector without a HAZLAB pre.

Probably by choice!

On the other hand, you could be considered a hero by being an organ donor.

Barred for dismemberment

Kind words from an organ recipient.

I love this bass too much, it gets all the play time....which is resulting in it getting pretty beat up.

Nah, brutha...that's mojo!

And here's where the haz currently resides, it is quite happy in its new home....she's a 7.5 pound killer in cadillac pearl white.

Oh, my life! That's a lovely piece there....

I LOVE my white Spectors.... but that 'pearl white' is a beauty!

Easy, you've got too many as it is It was a basket case when I got it, I've got wayyyyy too much money in it, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. Never seen a spector this light (7.5) pounds.

 

[cetera]

Actually, I've just sold one.... so I need to replace it

Guys, I may soon be leaving the Spector club! I have my Zebop for sale privately in the UK. I love this bass but I have a Status Graphite to take care of now and funds are short.

She's been a blast to own and in years to come I will be back to the Spector club!

Easy there everybody. I assume when the term 'boy' was used, it was as in dude or man and no offense was intended.

hehe! boy wasn't a derogatory directed at tim, boy was meant as in 'well golly shucks i'm confused' which sounds somewhat flanderish

thanks for helping, i also sent an email to spector.

so can you tell me what, if any tone differences are there? i'm loving the sound of what i've got - just curious.

Hey, you saw the thread on basschat! Now I'll have two 4 strings and money needs to go elsewhere...dreams to pursue, countries to visit and such!

I've always really liked the sound of the stock 2a electronics package as well. Sounds more like a warwick than a spector, but still sounds great.

PS, I was ribbing about the "boy" comment.

 

[ihateusernames]

this one has the active emg's installed - and i was just thinking today while practicing how the growl approaches warwick to a degree.

 

[Captain_Arrrg]

I was just thinking how I wished my Spector sounded like a Warwick too! Now I'm stuck with my Spector just sounding like a crummy Spector with it's weak-*** growl. Maybe someday Spector will be as awesome as Warwick.

/Sarcasm

To judge an original against a copy... :scowl:

(Don't take this too seriously, just blowing off a little steam)

 

[Gubna]

I don't know if I say this enough, but my Spector is the best bass I've ever played. I love it!

 

[Captain_Arrrg]

It may just be the lighting, but that board looks dry as a bone!

Obligatory Spector Club PSA- If you want a number PM Ray.

 

[Gubna]

as in... it might need some oil?

 

[ModulusFan]

Gubna, lemon oil is your friend!

I must also admit defeat....according to PJ, the first run of 2a's were MIJ, just as Ray said. According to PJ, there are few of them and there is no way to tell them apart from the MIK's....and he states he tells people they are MIK just to make it easier to tell the story and avoid confusion. Semantics anyway if you ask me.

He also said the 2a is a korean copy of the haz circuit. From what I can remember, they sound a lot different.

 

[Gubna]

sorry, I've never thought to do that...
