thisisswanbon Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Hi everyone! Anyone got any recommendations for a hard case for a spector bass? Between the small curved body and angled head stock I'm absolutely paranoid it's going to end up in a snapped heap of firewood!

P-ZARN Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 You could always buy a Spector hard case. The bass will fit very snug. They are quite pricey and from some of the reviews they're not the toughest of all cases. Thomann are selling them https://www.thomann.de/gb/spector_case.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-ZARN Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Bass Direct are doing them for £135 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Mine live in SKB style moulded cases...I have total confidence in them. I think that SiBob is currently selling one on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thisisswanbon Posted September 7, 2018 Author Share Posted September 7, 2018 Thanks for the suggestions, ended up with the spector case from Thomann, bass direct didn't get back to me with a timescale from their distributer. Bit dubious from the reviews I've read, but seems the best case for the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-ZARN Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Although not the cheapest around, I've always found Thomann customer service second to none. What Spector do you have ?? Any pics??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Why not get a generic case and cut foam to fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm impressed with the personal touch with text message etc, so far so good 🙂 The bass is a Spector rebop 4MM bought from Rhysyjob this week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-ZARN Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 That's one really good looking Spector. Really like the blue flame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thisisswanbon Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 Cheers folks, It's a great bass! I love the satin finish. Only used through headphones so far but there's a lot more body to the tone than I expected with the pick up placement. Build quality seems better than the EBMM Sterling 5 I had a while back(although this may have been a bad apple). Excited to see how it sits in the band mix. I can see how spector's can become addictive, Greek! I'm already considering looking for a PJ config next! Which spectors do you have? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
