As said above, there are many variables other than the wood and it is hard to predict how much and what contributions the wood would bring to the end result. I'd personally choose alder with a fancy top FYI, Roger Sadowsky has a great article about his experiences with the main tonewoods and their combinations. https://www.sadowsky.com/wood-and-sound-in-amplified-guitars-and-basses/

The serial number / its placement would make it clear (either a transition era NS-4CR from '99/00 or a pre LX Euro4 from 01-03) But it's most probably gone as a result of the refinish... Either way, only a Spector nerd like me would be interested in this, for all the others the only thing to know is that it is a killer bass with huge sound and ergonomics second to none.

While what you have in mind could be a fun project if one's doing it oneself, but paying for a luthier to do it will cost some dough. I'd forgone that cost and save the up and buy a 5 string Overwater with the specs you liked on the 6 string.

EMG has a P/J set in the 35 housing, I have this in one of my Spectors and sounds great, I love it. Also the EMG 35TWX is a great pickup, the coil tap function gives it some variety and it is nice, round sounding pickup.

You know you have to have one. It is inevitable. Don't fight SAS, resisting it is futile, we all know it.

What bass body shapes & aesthetics do you dislike?
Paulhauser replied to Wilco's topic in Bass Guitars
With all due respect to Alembic (one time owner myself) these are just not right for me especially on the pickup placement department. Both the JJ and the PJ is really off for me. Wonderful woodwork though (as pretty much always from Alembic) -
Not only one, but two Spectors.... Sir you certainly have a fine taste :-) These are great basses, I'm still on the look for a 35" version (and would tune BEAD) Have fun with them!

Spector Euro5 LX, made in the Czech Republic. You can score one used around 1000GBP. They sound great, very well built, great B string and has some great ergonomical features that you will like (based on the SR305) Also korean Spectors, called the Legend series has some very high price/value basses.

Congrats! Lovely Spector, those NS-2As have a very good reputation. (Haven't tried one myself as of yet though.)
