Hi, These are still for sale ( March 2025 ) I took these tuners off my 2016 Spector NT4 and replaced with Gotoh Gold GB707 , hence photo to show Drop In compatibility. Just home use by myself for a few months ( I bought bass new in 2018) before putting the gold set on. So excellent condition and very little use. They’ve cleaned up as well as the other same size set I’m now selling (£45) on here , just no Spector Logo on these. The diagram dimensions are accurate in the photo. I have digital calipers. Just had to change a couple of dimensions on a Wilkinson open gear diagram. £40 includes UK postage. 2L-2R Weight 238g Cheers. Quent

Thanks. Have another biscuit ! These are stunning basses in appearance, even better than my photos and the pickups / preamp don’t disappoint either. I couldn’t find any other preowned one’s for sale in the UK currently so this is a great chance for somebody to enjoy a magnificent bass. Cheers. Quent

Hi. Last chance tonight at £1700 folks. Fantastic bass in tip top condition. Dont miss out ! Same for my Spector 4LT Rudy Sarzo £1700, last night on here. Here’s my 2010 USA Musicman Stingray 5HH in excellent condition. No damage or signs of wear apart from some really thin cobweb like lines on the pick guard which dont show in the photos even. ** Pick guard now polished so just very minimal signs of control knobs use. * ** Mini dimple on rear of body now drop filled and polished ! Jobs a good un ! ** Photos added at the end showing pick guard and rear of body with No Dimple 🤓! on the back of the body. My lamps make it look worse than it is, to be clear.So only a 9.9/10 for condition ! Excuse the conservatory roof reflections (the parallel lines) and there’s a palm plant too. Better light though. This bass plays both beautifully and thunderously depending on your preference with the 5 way pickup selector and powerful 3 band preamp. All the electronics perform perfectly. Everything works as it should and the alnico pickups give a rich variety of useable tones. It’s a very responsive and dynamic bass in tip top condition and priced accordingly. The frets have most of their depth left and were professionally dressed just after I bought it. See the close ups. They were polished today and I only had to use a little oil to clean the fretboard today so this bass is ready to do the business for you. New battery too. It has a lovely smooth and dark rosewood board. Shiny gloss black finish over the ash body. Nut width 44.6mm 66.6mm at 12th fret String spacing 17.5mm at the stainless steel saddles. D’Addario 40-125 roundwound nickels. Weighs 4.55kg , 10lbs 1/2 oz with the lighter original metal black knobs and 4.6kg, 10lbs 2oz with the chrome ones. Nicely balanced with a strap in either case. I’ve had it nearly 10 years but need to raise some funds now and recently got a 4HH Special so that can take over now. I bought it used in 2016 but it’s only had minimal home use in that time as my other basses need playing too. It’s all stock apart from the chrome knobs but I have the original black ones if you’d prefer them. Both photod. Price reflects the excellent condition and perfect working order. It includes the original Musicman Stingray 5 hard case and insured UK Mainland delivery costs but I will send it further afield if you contribute the charge beyond UK mainland. Thanks for looking.

Hi everyone. LAST NIGHT at £1700 before withdrawing so don’t miss your chance! My EBMM Stingray 5HH Black is also £1700 for a short while. Here’s my Spector Euro4 LT Rudy Sarzo in gloriously glossy scarlet red. I need to raise some car funds so you’ll see other lovely basses up for grabs in the next week or so. Serial Number NB18023 , so made Late 2021 to early 2022 in Czech Republic. I bought this from a Basschatter , though on Ebay , in March 2023. As usual, it’s had limited home use only due to my other basses pleading with me to play them. The previous owner didn’t leave any signs of wear at all so it really is in Mint Condition. Not even any minor swirls on the body, no fret wear and the ebony board is dark and pristine. Gorgeous mother of pearl inlays and the gold hardware contrasts so well with the body and glossy headstock. Measured with my digital calliper's it’s 41mm across Nut. ( Spec says 42 ) 43mm at first fret. 53.5mm at 12th and string spacing 18mm at saddles. 3.6kg 7lbs 14oz. Balances beautifully with a strap so feels even lighter. The lower rear corner of the bridge has some tiny tarnish spots , I can’t capture them on camera , they are so small. I polished the frets today, the board looks epic so I left that alone. Truss rod hasn’t been used by me but I tested it anyway and it adjusts smooth as silk. My usual 15-20 thou relief currently, fretting at first fret and near body. Nut slots are spot on for a business card under the strings at first fret when fretted at 3rd 👍. D’Addario nickel wounds 45 65 80 100. Not new but sound great to me. The Fishman Fluence humbucker pickups are superb and noiseless, powerful with great clarity. I’ve included screenshots of information below. If you watch reviews with RS on them you won’t learn much to be honest. Along with the Fishman 2 band pre amp , pickup blend and Volume controls the switch gives you 3 “Voicings” Classic, Fat and Round - Fishman say this is “Passive” “Active” - Full frequency range and full dynamics. “Active” - with Mids scooped. These are not passive pickups , the battery is engaged all the time so Fishman are using the words to describe the kind of tone really. If you pull the Volume knob you get a calmed down version of the 3 tones via the switch. “Coil Split “ they say, and it’s a good description. My Spector Euro 5LX has EMG Twin pickups and the single coil tones on that are just more subtle, in the same way as on my 4LT. There’s a lot of duff info out there but I’ve written the above description based on Fishman info only. I bought this bass because I was so curious, I haven’t been disappointed and I’m sure you won’t be either. It’s so versatile and responsive and with Spector characteristics too. I still have my Euro 5LX and a Pulse II 4 for Spector thrills ! My price includes UK mainland insured FedEx delivery so I’ll ask for an extra contribution if you are further away. The Spector , well padded, gigbag is included but I can use a good hard case instead if you’d prefer. Thanks for looking.
