Interesting character. Colour-wise it looks like an inverted Flea bass.

Here is a nice-looking NT one, admittedly not from the early 90s but from 2002 (not my bass, no affiliation with the seller): https://bassbros.co.uk/product/2002-warwick-thumb-bass-thru-neck/

What is achievable? Buying the bass, wearing Spandex or both? 😉

Spector Fans, If you are looking for a stunning looking Spector bass, then go and check out the marketplace here on BC. There's an amazing NS-2 with one of the finishes I have seen. Real stunner. Here is the link (not my bass, no affiliation with the seller):

Killer looking bass. Mega WOW 😍🤩🥰 GLWTS 👍 -
... and, more importantly, knowing where you are (i.e., around the corner) 😉

“Would” live performance from 1993 on BBC’s Later now available in HD. One of AIC’s first performances with Mike Inez 😀 -
Looks like the lobster is not a big fan of the Steve Harris signature bass with the Manchester United logo either (2 out of 5 claws):

@mattbass6, here is a used one in royal blue in case you are interested (not my bass, no affiliation with the seller): https://richtonemusic.co.uk/fender-mij-steve-harris-precision-bass-royal-blue-metallic-bag-2nd-hand/

Could be. Let's hope they'll release some more info soon!
-
Cool stuff. 82 will be available (Rio got released in 82) in this finish but it sounded as if there could be other finishes coming out too. Are you sure about the Glockenklang preamp? Sheldon mentions Rupert Neve and that Neve (Design) came up with the custom preamp.
-
Looks cool. Has some strong Rio vibes.
-
The custom shop page also has a custom shop build sheet for download (towards the bottom of the page). The models listed are: NS-2, 4X, NS-5, 5X and NS-6. As I said, real shame to see the Forte go (as a similarly specced NS-2 will cost way more), but good news for the Forte's resale value 😀
-
There is a very interesting and unique Euro on the BC marketplace. A real bargain in comparison to what Euros cost nowadays (and what that particular bass cost). Just saying 😉
-
Earlier the year, over at Talkbass, someone from Fretnation mentioned it. You can check his website and it does not mention Fortes anymore: https://www.fretnation.com/spector-usa-series-basses His Spector configurator, very interesting, so many options! https://www.fretnation.com/spector-usa-ns-series-4-string-neck-thru-bass
-
I know one of these and it is a killer bass 🙂
-
A bit earlier, I posted a photo of the headstock, and it is indeed a NS-2. However, the specs sound indeed more like a Forte, but I don't think Spector is making any Fortes anymore (as I said, according to a US retailer who is taking Spector orders). So, if someone wants a no-frills NS-2, you cannot go down the Forte route anymore and will have to get a lower specced NS-2 with the much higher price tag. Sad but true.

BTW, my previous Forte with the Haz 18V is back on BD. It was my no-frills NS-4. I bought it in 2020 but sold it after some time via BD. Someone bought it then but is now selling it again via BD. It is a great bass, but I am not a fan of matte finishes. I have no affiliation with BD or the seller, don't even know who (s)he is.
