Spector Euro 5 LX "Gloss Black Stain" Lefty Bass

Post by gravesbass »

This bass is 9.95/10 condition and it could pass as new with zero fret wear. It is absolutely perfect and It never got played. I see only 1 tiny blemish on the top that can't even be seen unless looking under a close light. I own 5 Specters and this and another one sits in the case and now needs to go. Thinning the herd again and no longer require backups. My pics aren't so great and not a 100% representation of the bass. I need to take shots outside.

Specs: Carved Solid Alder Body (for better fundamental), a slice of walnut, and a Figured Maple Top.
Active EMG 40DC USA Pickups with upgraded EMG BQC Preamp. This preamp brings the bass to life and FAR better than the stock TonePump. It is wired 9v but can also be ran at 18v or a little more headroom although you really don't need it. There is room in the control cavity for 2x9v batteries.
Legendary Spector Neck-Thru Body Design, designed for Spector, Graphite Reinforced 3 Piece Rock Maple Neck, Brass Nut, 24 Fret Rosewood Fingerboard with Spector Crown Pearl Inlays Black Hardware: Spector Bridge, Schaller Tuners and Schaller Strap Locks.

Included in Sale:
Spector Fitted Hard Case ($175 Value)
EMG Preamp was professionally installed ($160 Value)
List Price $3079.00 before additional items.

$1,200.00 B/O plus "actual" shipping. This bass could pass as new. Street without upgrades is 2200 without case. This guy weighs a hair over 9lbs because it does not have brass hardware. perfect weight IMO for a Spector.

Beautiful! Everytime I see one of those, the smile on its face is more tempting and inviting than the previous time. As if they're trying to tell me something... ;)

Played a Rebop 4 DLX and 5 DLX at the Lefty Bass Day in Germany, and was impressed with the build quality and playability. Especially for the money. Would love to try one of those Euro LX's, but they're not quite common here.
