This is the 10th Anniversary ReBop MM4 bass. Check it out....I did this video when I was a Spector artist. I leave it posted here for those of you who are curious about the bass as I no longer endorse their instruments.
I REALLY should get my hands on a 4 and/or 5-string of the ReBop-MMs... as a "ReBop 'Ho" with 5 that have completely Custom Pickups & Preamps (Custom wound & sized Nordstrand Big Singles & Aguilar OBP-3SK/PP) in my ReBopDLX4-FM, DLX4-EX, DLX5-EX: The "Go-To Bass", and 2 DLX5-FMs: one Custom Lined Fretless w/ an HG Thor Epoxy Coating & one with EMG40-P5 & 40-DC pickups to get the tone of Fender's '95-'08 "American Deluxe Precision"... I'm very much NOT a P-Bass guy but that P/DC pickup arraignment with its Jazz-esque mids spoke to me as much as a Precision ever as, and my "Spector American Deluxe ReBop" comes *very* close to that Rare Bird of a Precision. I'm also not huge into the MusicMan tone, but a Spector "ReBop MusicMan" w/ Maple-and-Black Crown Inlays fretboard & Growly Single-Coil mode would fill in the 'Ray hole in my Toolbox quite nicely. I only wish the 5-string had a different finish to compliment the 4, like a Red-on-Black to go with the 4's Blue-on-Black. I could live with it, though... ;-D
@jnumme< It is a nice bass...the hiFi sound as you called it is not my thing so for the growly purposes, I opted to use a Warwick which you will see in one of my other vids
Not only does that bass have a nice tone but the inlays and how the bass looks overall is gorgeous :D

Thanks for the review, since that's an axe I'm seriously considering to purchase. All the best.
the body color is nice and it is an interesting bass...
nice ISAs!
Did you make any recordings with this bass? Would be nice to hear it in the mix.
ah, well keep up the demos helps me on finding my next toy. lol
depends on what sound you are looking for.
Hey dude. love your videos. I have an Ns2a from 1988. Looking for a blue stained Euro or LX p/j or humbucker. You got anything to move to Ireland?
These are beautiful, I have total GAS for the 5-string version.
Not to worry. As things arrive....
gorgeous bass, but the tone is kinda thin imo
Seems to be way too HI-FI think I like the older rebops more . But I really dig the maple fb and the body color.

Just saw a new commercial with The Dukes in the General lee . I'm guessing you already saw it. Just saying.I see all of your Duke's stuff
Okay
Are you still endorsed by Spector ?
Way to much high end you need to ad a neck pickup IMHO. Nice bass though
No, I felt that it was not a good fit for me.
