Holy Mackerel!!!! You killing me!!!! I have a USA hand made signed 1993 NS-2 Spector. This sounds just as good!!! Damn Johnny! You the best, I could listen to you all day!
Spectors are absolutely phenomenal instruments. Getting a violet fade euro 5 lt here soon.. Own a older spector Q4 pro that i have had a 18 volt tone capsule put in and its a monster. Solid grove my bass brother.
I love your adding of "color" in this review. Your comments are hilarious and refreshing. By the way, I take delivery of the tigers eye euro 4 lt this week. Subscribed.
So positive love it 😊 very very nice bass they make probably the most versatile basses around and the comfort of and play ability is top notch. Good for you jonny i hope you love it
jajajaja!!! que locura que tenes Hermano mío!!! jajaja!!! me haces reir mucho!!!! Que buen Speeeeeeeector!!!!!!!!!!!! Alucinante!!! Yo tb tengo Spector, Belleza pura por donde se lo vea/escuche!!!!!!
Even if it wasn't said in the title seeing the strap button location and curve of the body already knew it was a Spector NS body. If it's a little hot for the amp check the control cavity for a trim pot on the preamp you can dial it back turning it counter clockwise .. I have a violet burst euro 5 lt with a tone pump and emg dc40 humbuckers love the bass my favorite. Also love my old q4 pro with a 18 volt darkglass tone capsule and my spector rebop 5 dlx zebrawood with a emg bqc
There are some Euros out there that are gnarly as hell, I had one I wished I never let go. Was a 435LX and it was the best I had ever heard from that line.
God damn. I suspect that Aaron Mills used one of these on Ms. Jackson and other Outkast tracks. Either that, or a different NS2 style Spector bass, one with the active PJ setup and a neck-through construction. That sound is so distinct. I love it. If anyone knows for sure what he used, please let me know
I had the same Bass. With a slightly different headstock. It was a Warwick Streamer Stage I. No matter who copied who (Warwick did...), the bass was killer. The EMG P/J set together with the cut/boost preamp made that girl sing and growl.
Gotta get one!!!!!!!!!! Update just picked up a Spector Euro5 String LX With The Poplar Burl Gloss Finish...Its the same one that was at the 2019 NAMM show----loving it!!!! maybe heading to the HOBO DEPOT next for some new mods!!!! any ideas on alternative preamps Johnny?
Just played a Euro today in the local music store. These basses are beyond every other brand! Perfect crafted, perfect tone, perfect look. These basses are just perfect. Better than any Warwick, Fodera, Ritter or other gay brands
I tried an Alex Webster Euro and the sound was fantastic but the neck felt like a telephone pole. I own a 4 and 5 string P bass and a 5 string mid 90’s Stingray and the Spector neck was like twice as big as those necks. Is that normal because I absolutely could not stand it.
Hey Johnny, in your opinion what are the pros and cons of the reverse precision pickup? I'm planning on a custom build soon and debating whether I should go "normal P" (EA coil ahead of DG coil) or "Reverse P".
francoispayen I have a few basses with Reversed Ps, and I’ve consistently found that the E/A coils closer to the bridge tighten up the tone of the lower strings to a nice degree, as well as loosening up the D/G by placing them farther away. It’s only a matter of .75-1.00” at most, but I prefer it to the point that I had the precision pup reversed on my custom Mike Lull PJ/JJ24-5. To my ears, it may not be the “classic” P/J tone but it’s the evolution of that particular tone.
Really love the way you express that musical joy of yours! And trust me, all Spector owners know exactly how you feel.
I LOVE my Spector Euro. I always get compliments on my tone. It's such a killer bass.
Well, I'm convinced that I need one, now. Sir, you could sell ice to folks that live in the Arctic Circle. Keep playing and keep loving life!
"Lord Have Mercy." Exact phrase when playing a spector. Love my Forte X.
I've never heard pickups that dynamic.
It's the best sounding bass i've ever heard.
Holy Mackerel!!!! You killing me!!!! I have a USA hand made signed 1993 NS-2 Spector. This sounds just as good!!! Damn Johnny! You the best, I could listen to you all day!
Those Euro Spectors...... 👍👍
Whenever I want to be in a better mood, I watch your vids Johnny , always make me laugh and some superb bass playing my friend
The P+J pickup is configuration is a killer sound!!!
I don't think the world is ready for that much funk. Settle down!
Just kidding. Let her rip! What you have there is amazing, sir. Keep em comin!
My favorite reviewer covering the exact bass I'm looking at down to the color is exactly what I needed
Spectors are absolutely phenomenal instruments. Getting a violet fade euro 5 lt here soon.. Own a older spector Q4 pro that i have had a 18 volt tone capsule put in and its a monster. Solid grove my bass brother.
This guy is awesome!! Sick sound and playing! Keep on rocking Johnny Long!!

A solid piece of kit and a great review. Always a pleasure, sir. Keep them comin'...!
My Spector bass is the bass thing I've ever played. I have this guys reaction when I play it
Aaron mills from Cameo, too!!
They Int cheap tho.
Damn ! Johnny sounding like Cameo in '84!!! 🔥

Oh..thats Doug Wimbushs bass!! I see why Doug is a favorite and y he sounds sooo good.
Johnny too!!
I have an NS2000/5 with an EMG BQC pre and 40DC/40CS pups. Its a Korean bass that absolutely growls.
There are some Euros out there that are gnarly as hell, I had one I wished I never let go. Was a 435LX and it was the best I had ever heard from that line.
That thumpin at 3:40 had me moving in my seat! Come on now!
"I'm gonna blaze this junk..."
Inverted Pbass pickup!!...I like that!!...
Now THAT'S how you review a bass 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great video and Spector basses are awesome.
Just a bit of advice.
In future you could show a little more enthusiasm in your videos. Cheers
You’re killing us Johnny!
havent played in like 5 years, got recommenced something to do with spectors and now im about to buy one lmaaaooo
Spector...........I do believe I have the vapors!!!
That has me convinced I need a spector's in my life, that's all I know
Just piked up a Eurobolt 4 and I think I am now a Spector convert. Wow
Min 3:40 hahahaha that slap groove is stinking. Nasty groove:)
Somebody throw some water on that bass..too funky
what a piece of art and tone..
My favorite Bass period
Wow ur an amazing bassist and this bass only makes it even better. Saw one at my local store and now I know I have to get it
You make it look so easy.... much love!!
God damn. I suspect that Aaron Mills used one of these on Ms. Jackson and other Outkast tracks. Either that, or a different NS2 style Spector bass, one with the active PJ setup and a neck-through construction. That sound is so distinct. I love it. If anyone knows for sure what he used, please let me know
As well on the Cameo projects!
correct. USA Spector NS-2 on later stuff and a NS-1 on the early Cameo stuff. With a HAZLab Pre that sounds waaay better than the ToneMonsters IMO.
Hi Johnny, would be great a video about this spector setup. I have the same but I am not getting a great tone like yours!
I love mine. But I watch others often so I can find people like this guy
You always make my day. Great vids. Great bass collection
I hope you don't mind but I'm gonna record something like that jam! It's frickin groovin'!
Nice groove and bass.
Your too happy! Like what the flip!
Jesus!!! The main problem is the money.
You are amazing! 😉
My name Johnny, why ain't I playing like dat???
I have that same bass and love it!
I had the same Bass. With a slightly different headstock. It was a Warwick Streamer Stage I.
No matter who copied who (Warwick did...), the bass was killer.
The EMG P/J set together with the cut/boost preamp made that girl sing and growl.
Hell yes! So glad I found this! Love it dude!
You said it's a Tonepump but with a detent ?
I just watched your review/demo on the Spector Euro4 and you and that bass killed what set up did you do on it
Naisty. . .
Euro Spector, I had one of him, it’s then most disappointed bass on stage, very powerful but can’t hear anything on stage!
That was 100% either a bad amp or a bad cab.
OK, I just noticed the Samurai Sword in the background.
Gotta get one!!!!!!!!!! Update just picked up a Spector Euro5 String LX With The Poplar Burl Gloss Finish...Its the same one that was at the 2019 NAMM show----loving it!!!! maybe heading to the HOBO DEPOT next for some new mods!!!! any ideas on alternative preamps Johnny?
She's on her way to Daddy!!! yeahhh!!!!
The Spector sounds awesome but I’m disappointed... where’s Hootie?
Sounds AMAZING! Is that the LT or LX?
LX
Ya ever get any G & L. L-2000 basses in the shop?....That Spector sounds AWESOME btw 😱🔥🔥🔥😎👍
Time to get me one of those beauties !
Kayneen see it mayne.... I got into these basses because of nikki sixx
STOP!........Too Funky!
Dude, what is that guitar on your picture?? Looks insane( the good insane )
I love my Euros! Bass on steroids! Oh yeah!
I've noticed how incredibly small is the body in these basses, or just when you're holding it
"keeniieensiiiiet...keeniieensiiiiet...keeniieensiiiiet"
Oh this just has to make you smile 😀
What did you do for the setup? Tone is more like the ns2 with HAZ preamp.
Just played a Euro today in the local music store.
These basses are beyond every other brand!
Perfect crafted, perfect tone, perfect look.
These basses are just perfect.
Better than any Warwick, Fodera, Ritter or other gay brands

@@milkwalkerjones633 Spector 5s have huge necks and 35inch scale . If you have Short arms and small hands that 35 scale will work you .!

hat bass is "ALIVE"!
this one sounds really great. Is it a euro lx ??? Build ???
Yes, it Is a poplar burl top LX
Sure hope so at $3,000.00!!...
Is this a euro 4 LX? Is the neck very thick?
Lord have mercy....be careful. 😄
Ya can't be the P/J pickup combo
Just got me one also,lol
Underneath the frets...
What did you add to the Bass?
Tone pump or obp 1?. Thank you.
What amp and cab do you use here?
God dayyymn.
I’ve heard a couple people say it’s a rock bass?
It does everything but excels at the heavy stuff.
Hubba hubba!
What is with the samurai sword behind you?
how heavy are this things? not sure if get this or the bolt on pj rebop
About 9lbs
👐😎👐 ❤️
👍
Bamgin' !!!!!
Reverse p
