  1. I prefer our custom order colours tbh.... but nice to see they've bowed to pressure with a stock ltd run https://www.musicinstrumentnews.co.uk/2023/02/23/limited-edition-euro-x-bass-series-from-spector/
  2. For those that missed our custom run, there will be some more in diff finishes available soon... I prefer ours tbh https://www.musicinstrumentnews.co.uk/2023/02/23/limited-edition-euro-x-bass-series-from-spector/
  3. Also, if you go the roof box route PLEASE ensure you lock it! I had a VERY scary experience once while driving our band van when the roof box of a car in front exploded open at 70+mph littering the motorway with detritus including, but not limited to, a duvet and some sleeping bags which went under our van wheels at said high speed and very nearly killed us....
  4. Yup, there's a reason why they're the best 😎
  5. Graeme purchased a preamp & set of pickups from me. Great comms and fast payment. Recommended! Deal with confidence
  6. I have 30+ Spector and none have that issue. Could be a rare off-one or could be something you're doing/you've done or the environment.
  7. The GK stuff is great. I have the Legacy800 (non Fusion) head and pair it with a 4ohm 600W 2x12 Neo. Sounds fantastic and plenty loud.
  8. Yep, I have one in ultraviolet. Beautiful bass, lush roasted maple neck and classic Spector tones from the EMGs etc. To my mind they're the best all round 'value for money' Spectors you can currently buy...
  9. Reasonable. It dives, but not as bad as a TBird. Nothing a good grippy strap won't sort...
  10. Oh yes indeedy! It's actually somewhere between Ian Hill and a normal Euro LX.
  11. He didn't have a kind word to say about you either.... 🙄😕
  12. As a longtime Spector endorsee and collector I have always wanted to see a mid-price Euro version of their custom USA-X (Spectorbird) model.... So, using my contacts and linking up with UK retailer Bass Direct we organised a special limited custom run (less than 25) of just that! After a 9 month wait they have just arrived. Black, white, tobaccoburst flame and an amazing ultraviolet quilt! Equipped with EMG pickups, Tonepump preamp & gold hardware, they have turned out amazingly well.... I'm so pleased 🥰😎 Thanks to Bass Direct for their assistance and here's to our next custom build!
  13. Had this head for a year or so and it's awesome but I've barely touched it due to my GK endorsement and increased gigging (requiring GK visibility). Rehearsal use only and never turned up in anger... so 9.5 condition. Spec from Fender: The Rumble 800 Head is ideal for almost any genre of music, and at 800 watts, it has power to spare. The super-simple control interface makes it easy to dial-in the right bass tone for any gig. Its pure low-end and high-quality tone-shaping tools will please any bassist who desires a high-powered, lightweight rig. Like all Fender bass amplifiers, the Rumble 800 Head delivers thick, natural tone that sits perfectly in your live or studio mix. Includes footswitch and padded carrying bag. 8, 4 & 2 0hm capability 5.8lbs XLR Line Out (pre-Master) with Ground Lift switch & pre/post switch Stereo Aux input; Stereo Headphone out Fantastic overdrive circuit Three button tone voicing (vintage, contour & bright) FX loop Speakon/1/4" jack capability Footswitch These amps were the result of Fender absorbing the technical know-how of Genz Benz when they bought them out. As a result it's probably one of the most well designed and versatile amps I've ever used, with very intuitive eq, voicings & overdrive. I'll be very sad to see it go, but bills to pay. Comes with Fender padded bag, footswitch, instructions and power cable. New these are £650. I'll accept £400 inc UK shipping (Paypal or Bank Transfer) or collect from Camberley area with cash option. Please see my extensive positive feedback thread for assurance of a clean & honest transaction. Cheers!
  14. I'll take them please. Only really want the preamps if you will sell separately? Will PM.
  15. Got this for a fun 'office' bass but I don't really need it.... it's not like I haven't got loads of others to play! lol! Classic Ash 70's style Jazz with great tones and a fantastic reputation at a very low price point. Plays and feels excellent... just surplus to requirements for me. J-Style Body: American ash Bolt-on neck: maple Fretboard: Maple Black fretboard binding Roseacer skunk stripe Black block inlays 20 Frets Nut width: 38 mm Long scale: 864 mm Dual-action truss rod Pickups: 2x Roswell JBA Alnico-5 Vintage JB-style single coils 2 Volume knobs and 1 tone knob Deluxe chrome hardware Classic PB-style machine heads Colour: Natural High-gloss Excellent general condition. These are £150 from Thomann so save yourself £50 off retail and come and collect it from me. Alternatively I can meet you within 30 miles for £10 fuel or I can take the neck off and ship for £25 if you want.... Payment in cash (collection/meet) or Paypal (you pay fees)/bank transfer if you want it sent. Please see my very extensive positive feedback thread for assurance of a clean, honest transaction.
  16. Not to be difficult... but surely you know their address to return the preamp? Send it back with a print copy of email conversation and ask for a refund asap.
  17. My Mum listened to The Rolling Stones and Mario Lanza. My Dad listened to The Beatles, Rick Nelson and The Shadows. My Sister listened to Barry Manilow, David Cassidy and Queen. My Brother listened to Earth, Wind & Fire, Santana, Mike Oldfield, Osibisa and ELO. I majorly took my brother's influence, added Queen from my Sister, and then followed my own path using those bands as great starters.... I do now also own Stones, Beatles, Rick Nelson & Shadows stuff too though
  18. https://www.mansons.co.uk/blog/post/manson-guitar-shop-update-2023 Sad news, losing such a highly respected retailer...
