    Still in deep love with my NS-2 from 1987 build for "Twisted Sister". Thanks for upload your video and welcome to the family. Try a strap from "mono" and you will be fine. Greetings from lower saxony the good old north of Germany.

    Thanks so much for posting this. I just bought one in gloss black and was about to send it back as I thought it had a defective volume pot. Assuming it was volume/volume/bass eq/treble eq, when the other ‘volume’ is actually a pickup blend.
    Thanks to your video, I now know how the blend works as this is my first Spector.

    With the maple wings I was expecting 9-10 pounds but 7 is some kind of miracle🤯🤯

    Love Spector, have owned 2, including an original NS-2 that I stupidly let get away! Might have mentioned the P pickup is reversed versus Fender. Congrats!

    That's a nice bass, something I can't afford. That's why I bought the White Performer 4.

    Looks like a gorgeous instrument!
    They go here in Uk for 2000 pounds plus and i believe they are worth every penny ... i find similarities with Warwick ... similar level of finesse i suppose ...
    My only gripe is Emg pick ups ... they are cold and are perfect for metal but for softer tones they are a bit mono dimensional ... similar things with aguilar which i owned and parted with ... i looove what Sire did with their preamp and how warm the tone is ...

    It sounds amazing !! I am in the process of ordering this very bass. How is the width / thickness of the neck ? - that is, from the fretboard to the back of the neck ? Is it playable ? I have a Performer and like the thin neck but looking to upgrade to this one now.

    • @alansamsmusic

      Thank you for watching the video. This bass is one of my primary three basses. It plays great, but It is not a thin neck profile. It's actually a pretty chunky neck.

      At 9.2lbs does it still have neck-dive or is it balanced perfectly?

    Sting is the reason I admire that bass so much. I wonder if it's because of the heavy neck why he doesn't play it anymore.

    If your bass has Gotoh GB707 tuners (61 grammes) then just switch to Gotoh GB350 "Res-o-lite" tuners (39 grammes). This'll reduce some of the dive.

    What are those riffs your playing at 3:12 and 5:00? Are they from specific songs?

      At 3:12 that's a song Cumbersome by Seven Mary Three at 5:00 I'm playing Low by Cracker

      ​@alansamsmusic thank you! Great playing and awesome bass. I'm looking into a Spector as my next but torn between a Spector, MM Stingray or a Solar. More into heavy metal but appreciate all walks of music

      @alansamsmusic I have a sterling Ray34 and love the tone but it's kind of a one trick pony. My Fender P-Bass I find sits the best in a mix. Of course I'm in no band and only play for enjoyment but when I listen back to recordings I've done, the P blends well while my Ray sometimes overpowers the music. The Spector seems like it has more tones to work with than what I think the MusicMan can do. What are your thoughts?

      @@alansamsmusic I have a Fender P Bass, and I am looking to add either a Music Man StingRay or a Fender Jazz Bass to my collection for slapping. (I love my Euro, but it's just not doing it for me when I slap). I tried out a bunch of them and I am leaning towards the J Bass. I didn't like the feel of the StingRay as musch as the J Bass. And the J Bass is super easy to play. I didn't play them through an amp, so that's one variable that I need to test before I pull the plug.

    It really helps to have an idea of what you want to say before starting the camera. Lol. But cool bass! I love it in white, as well. I saw Sting on SNL in the early 90’s with it and wanted one ever since. Awesome score!
