Where were you when I was trying to sell/trade my TRB5-P MK1…[/quote] HA HA i know its typical, i was in a dilemma when i bought this at the time i was deciding between this an Overwater perception 5 and Gwylim was selling a lovely Amber TRBP mk1 ( for a hugely bargain price) dont regret buying the Spector though as its fantastic, but the Yammy was a good un!!

  3. Hey Kevin that is one gorgeous Fender, right up my alley as it were, are you taking the last minute trip to china then? - bump for a great chap!!
  4. Bargain of the week, jump on this people, ive got one best gigbags money can buy!!
  5. Ive been after a tri 115 for a long time, would go fantastic with my tri110, great price too!! no bloomin money though- good luck with the sale
  6. tough choice!!! i have two Marcus miller and phil lynott, they def have the x factor as it were!! charisma, talent ,great dress sense, and a very very close second Meschell ndege ocello i just love everything she does. Am i being greedy
  7. I had one of these and sold it when i was skint best chorus ive ever had, fantastic sound- bump
  8. Fantastic shame it isnt a 5 though!!!
  9. Absolutely stunning, if i had the cash i'd have it in a second, the top is to die for, Stuart spector uses the most incredible woods- a bargain for an instrument of this quality
  10. Still available for part trade with a decent 5 string!!
  11. very nice indeed, i'd be very tempted by this, it would have to have a low B though!!

    SOLD

    How very odd, i was only thinking of this bass not two days ago, shame i cant afford it big bump for a stunner
  13. My wifes just lost her job, so will have to sell this
  14. Streamer stage 1 - all maple body neck through , PJ pickups 3 band EQ Streamer stage 2 - afzelia body neck through , JJ pickups, 3 band EQ Streamer LX - maple body, bolt on ovangkol neck , PJ pickups, 2 band EQ Streamer LX (Jazzman) ash/ekenga stripe/maple top , bolt on ovangkol neck, splittable musicman(series/paralell/single coil) and jazz pickups, 3 band EQ Streamer LX $$ Ash body, bolt on ovangkol neck, two splittable musicman pickups And various signature types PNUT 1,2 AND 3 etc All very diffrent ive owned stage 1, LX and Jazzman versions and loved em all, still Spector copies though the jazzman sounded so good, but i hated the neck, jazzman = jAZZ pickup and musicMAN pickup, still a streamer hope this helps
  15. Thats the thing! check if your pickup is ceramic and get a alnico one, nordstrand and seyour duncan do respectable versions and the bartolini is very warm, i had a Nordy in my old sterling and loved it, it does sound like you just need to get a diffrent bass
  16. Batman's Bass!!!! that chuffin special!!
  17. Thanks Frank He's right it plays like a dream, nice slim neck(you dont even notice the 35" scale) and the frets are perfect, very easy to play,and sounds fantastic, as i said this was going to be a reluctant sale and after doing "hairspray" last week with it, im kinda resolved to keep it, im going to give it a week then im keeping it.
  18. Not a sausage will probably withdraw anyway. Finally managed to get the better pics up [attachment=84884:Spector_re_d_3.jpg][attachment=84885:Spector_re_done_2.jpg][attachment=84887:Spect or_re_done6.jpg][attachment=84888:Spector_redone_5.jpg][attachment=84888:Spector_redone_5.jpg] Last chance before i change my mind TIM!!!!!!!!£900 if you want to collect it!!
  19. Just sold some Monster cables to Ben, paid fairly quickly with no fuss, thanks Ben hope you like em

[quote name='Evil Undead' post='1296445' date='Jul 7 2011, 08:57 PM']Wish you had some ashtrays If you do, by any random chance, please PM me [/quote] sorry i dont have any ashtrays, i do have the front pickup bell cover for a jazz, that i dont really use, i stick it on every now and then coz i think it looks great, but it gets in my way when im playing so i end up taking it off
  21. what a gorgeous example, i had a westone as a youngster, really well made and sound fantastic a bargain- bump
  22. [quote name='Lorne' post='1292210' date='Jul 4 2011, 02:21 PM']Update, finished [/quote] I absolutely adore that green spector, beutiful quilt you must let me know if you move that on

    SOLD

    Thats absolutely stunning, sonic blue is my favourite colour on a jazz bass , just love it- big bump
  24. Up for a reluctant sale is my gorgeous Spector CRFM5, it is a 2001 model which means it has solid quilted maple wings, USA rock maple centre core/neck and the full Brass bridge which makes it a lot closer to the USA custom jobs than the current EURO LX model , it has a natural oil finish showing off the beautiful grain pattern, the fretboard is rosewood with mother of pearl crown inlays and has a 35" scale neck (i suspect this may be one of the first 35 inchers) with a 17mm string spacing. The original Aguilar preamp was replaced by the previous owner with and East U retro deluxe preamp which we all know is the ultimate on board pre however as the pickups are EMG DC 40's and are active the passive rolloff on the pre doesnt work (if you turn it all the way down, it does kill all the treble for a massive wooley dub tone though), i have spoken to John East who explained the passive tone in the U retro isnt designed to work with EMG'S, so really the preamp is exactly the same as a standard retro The addition of the East does make this a versatile beast, i play a lot of musical theatre and its covered most styles easily with a bit of tweaking, the core sound is very clear and focused as you would expect from an all maple bass but can produce a lot of bottom end, and unlike standard spectors the mids are well catered for with the semi parametric Mid Eq. Condition wise its in very good condition its previous owner has looked after it very well, a few very small dings here and there, and a tiny one in the fretboard about 17th fret when my daughter tried to play slap bass with a book it will be shipped in a full aluminium warwick flightcase, but i am not willing to ship overseas sorry!!! I am wanting £900 + POSTAGE!! i will however entertain 5 string (Early yamaha TRB5 a preference) or EUB( wav 4) trades with cash my way!!! let me know what you have, Thanks for looking some much better pics can be found on the Spector porn thread, , any questions please PM me [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=78081&st=40"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=78081&st=40[/url] link for better photos, scroll down a bit [attachment=84150:000_0010.JPG][attachment=84149:000_0007.JPG][attachment=84148:000_0009.JPG]
