Stockholm Syndrome

OMFG!

I've been searching for an NS4 for ages. Only local pickup, huh...

I seem to recognize it from Youtube. Are you the guy playing Jeff Berlin stuff? EDIT: Nevermind, different bloke, but with similar NS4.

I've always loved the sound of the NS5-XL, and I love the idea of a 4-string version. The walnut should add a nice mid presence.

LOL at topic...good one!

What's the string spacing at the bridge?

Could you give a hint about what kind of £ you are looking for?

Ok, no problem. Sorry to hear though, as it is a great bass at an awesome price.

I see in the original post that you prefer local pickup, but would you consider shipping?

Really? Then why do people always talk about how they prefer the HazLab in Spectors? It seems that they were quite common for a period.

This bass is a BEAUTY! Sorry you have to let it go.... but someone could get a 'bass for life' (to use Nick's phrase) here....[/quote]
Yeah, I've been looking for a nice 5-string for a while, and Spector is on the top of my list. This one is especially gorgeous with the finish.

Which preamp is in the bass? HazLab or Spector TonePump?

Hey Lex!

It's Samuel from the W forums...

Nice to see you here too....now go play with your CS Warwicks!

Thanks!

Right now, I'm mainly here for the basses on sale, as I am looking for a 5-stringer. As both Sweden and the UK are part of the EU, you don't get the 25% tax you get when importing from the US!

Hi!

My name is Samuel, I'm 21, soon to be 22, and I'm from Sweden. I have been playing since I was 10.

Have been going to different music schools since the age of 12.

I currently use a Warwick LTD 2002 Corvette 4-string, and a Modulus 6-string. Looking for a Warwick 5-string to "complete" my collection.

I play everything from country to jazz, but what I like playing the most is funky, groovy music like Jamiroquai and such.

I hope I wont get on too many people's nerves here, as I have quite strong oppinions about many things, I tend to get a bit agressive in my arguments from time to time!

Cheers\Samuel

that is a stunning bit o' timber. Those pups don't look like standard MECs either.[/quote]
Actually, I'm 100% sure they are MEC, it's just that the gold writing has a nack for wearing off quite fast if you use it well.

Any interest in a straight out sale? I've been looking for a good Stage I for quite a while.

Oh, and to the OP, sorry for the stupid question, but I just have to ask:
The bass won't automatically make me sound as a Mark King-wannabe? I'm hoping his sound depends on the fact that he really cuts out all he mids, rather than having the EQ flat. I like a bass with good focus in the midrange.

I hope this bass would suit my needs. I already have a Modulus bass, which I am very pleased with.

Would you ship to Sweden?

What is the string spacing, and scale on this one?

Would you ship across the small pond to Sweden?

Still available?

Also, how much would shipping cost to Sweden?

Please PM me if the bass hasn't sold yet!

Cheers\Samuel

I'm a bit interested in this, as warwickhunt may have pointed out at the Warwick forums. I'm scared to make an offer though, as I don't know hoe much you expect to get out of the sale. Could you possibly PM with a reasonable price?

PM sent! (and first post here, yay!)

Great example of an awesome bass.
