    That is a really nice lookin Spector.
    But what do you mean they are 'messed up with their ebay transactions'?

    Then there's that whole disclaimer they put at the beginning of the auction listing that says they might not send you what you paid for in the auction.

    Here's a Spector question:

    I used to play Spectors exclusively.
    What I could never figure out is, back in the pre-import days, the difference between an NS2 and a NS4 was: An NS2 had the PJ pickup configuration and the NS4 had the Soapbars (I believe the USA basses are still designated this way).

    Why do they insist on calling all of these PJ Czech basses NS4CRFMs instead of NS2CRFMs ??? :confused:

    It's a mystery. :) Some of the early Woodstock USA NS PJ 4 string basses were called NS-4's & I believe (not 100% sure) that the Kramer Era USA NS 4 strings were also called NS-4 & they weren't offered with soapbars.

    As for the imports, I think it's just easier to remember. The NS-4CR is a 4 string & the NS-5CR is a 5 string.
