That's a beauty..... but I also have a thing for your reverse headstocked snakeskin 'Gunslinger' bass... :wub:

[quote name='NancyJohnson' post='508989' date='Jun 9 2009, 01:13 PM']That is very sweet. I shall look forward to putting it out of tune very soon. P[/quote] I'm sure that can be arranged...

[quote name='johnnylager' post='508373' date='Jun 8 2009, 05:41 PM']No. I think you really want to swap 'er for a Natural Oil one. And a crate of Stella - proper silver top continental stuff too, none of that gold top UK sh*te. EDIT: Er yes, you're right, a veritable beauty. Bastard.[/quote] ....AND a crate of Stella!?!? You really know how to tempt a bloke don't you?!? lol!

Resurrecting this thread as I have another new Spector acquisition.... A lovely Poplar Burl topped Spector Euro LX :wub: She's a beauty ain't she?!

[quote name='SammyDamacy' post='507315' date='Jun 7 2009, 12:30 AM']Gary came all the way to B town to pick up my lovely Spector. Great guy, very friendly and just overly cool as Well recommended, glad she went to the King of Spector [/quote] Thanks Sam! It was a pleasure to meet you.... and to relieve you of such a gorgeous bass!

Bought a lovely Spector from Sam! Great guy, trustworthy & makes a great cuppa. Recommended!

VERY nice.... love the matching headstock, BadAss & tort...

Very smart...!

[quote name='MacDaddy' post='503052' date='Jun 1 2009, 04:45 PM']Not just for KISS fans, a great rock show all round![/quote] Cheers mate! That seems quite a common comment at our gigs.... lots of 'KISS fans' bring their 'non-fan' friends to our shows & they seem to love seeing the 'full production' in a club environment...

[quote name='Musky' post='503033' date='Jun 1 2009, 04:17 PM']The line closures did affect your attendance at least a little... four of my mates called off because of it. I had to shoot off during the encores to make my connection or I would have said hi after the gig. Very impressed with the fire breathing btw. [/quote] Cheers Musky! Hope to say "Hi!" next time The fire breathing? Awwww it's just a little trick I learned along the way

Another great weekend! The Agincourt is now firmly set in our 'circuit'.... and the Victoria Line closures did nowt to affect our attendance at The Standard! Back o' the net! Great to see MacDaddy at The Standard.... thanks for coming mate!

[quote name='EBS_freak' post='499764' date='May 28 2009, 12:29 PM']Abba reign supreme. Listen to some of the basslines in those songs. The melodies of the vocals and some of the counter melodies in the surrounding orchestration is just... well, perfection. For me, Rutger Gunnarsson is one of the best pop bass players of all time... yet one of the most forgotten.[/quote] Huge +1 Rutger (along with Dee Murray of the original Elton John band) is one of my all-time faves. He nailed the 'perfect bassline for the song' EVERY time!

Ooh! That's nice Kinda like an old Ovation bass.... Any price guide on this?

We WILL do the [i]proper[/i] version of it.... and a lot heavier!

[quote name='Herbsley' post='498827' date='May 27 2009, 02:53 PM']Thanks everyone for your help. I have bought the bass now for £280 - but wanted to check to see whether I was getting a good deal. The info you have given, plus reviews I've read online of the NS2000/4 have eased any concerns I had. I think I've got myself quite a good deal there. Cheers, H.[/quote] You certainly have! Congrats.... and enjoy!

[quote name='Metallinen' post='499141' date='May 27 2009, 06:34 PM']Hehe, you may be right there. I caught one of your shows in Cardiff at The Point (RIP ) in December or thereabouts, and was thoroughly impressed so jumped on the opportunity when we were asked to support this one. I remember seeing one of your techs almost get his face blown off by some of your pyro, hehe.[/quote] Ah, he was just showing off and pretending to be in danger! [quote name='Metallinen' post='499141' date='May 27 2009, 06:34 PM']I'm actually the guitarist in the band but our bassist will be borrowing the bass I've bought. It's a Spector you'll be pleased to know. [/quote] Good man! That's what we like to hear See you there!

I seem to remember seeing him use SWR gear at the end of the 80's....

[quote name='funkypenguin' post='498590' date='May 27 2009, 11:18 AM']looks like an NS2000/4. manufactured in Korea. No longer produced. RRP would be about £700 brand new[/quote] Correct. Quite a heavy bass but with a very tight focused tone. Great value for money s/h and can be picked up for under £300 if you're lucky.

[quote name='Metallinen' post='497650' date='May 25 2009, 11:05 PM']I'm in one of the support bands on Friday. I just signed up here to buy a bass I've been after in the for sale section, and the seller tells me you post here. It should be a really good turnout at The Ag, if facebook RSPVs are anything to go by anyway. Really nice venue too - with the most powerful smoke machine I've ever witnessed![/quote] Cool! Will be great to meet you! REALLY looking forward to this show.... but I think the smoke machine will be made redundant by our pyro! lol!

Bumping for our shows coming up at: [b]Camberley (Surrey) 'The Agincourt' - Friday 29th May[/b] and [b]London Walthamstow 'The Standard' - Saturday 30th May[/b] Hope to see some of you at either!!

Lovely! I have the same but my black pickguard has a white edging...

I was with my family in a Harvester in the Putney/Roehampton area about 15 years ago & he was at the next table with a young lady..... couldn't believe it!!
