Spector USA NS-2 Forte 4 String 2023 - Nightshade Matte

A true modern classic – First introduced in 1977, Stuart Spector’s NS-2 has set the industry standard for modern, neck-thru body electric basses. Individually crafted by hand in small batches by expert luthiers in Woodstock, NY, USA Series basses are constructed from the finest source materials, including hand-selected tone woods from the most fertile regions of the United States. From the elegantly carved NS contoured body shape to our coveted active tone controls that contribute to the now-famous 'Spector growl', USA Series models represent the pinnacle of electric bass design. 

This is a Woodstock, NY built Spector NS2 Bass, a neck-through instrument built with a choice of woods that include an ash body in Nightshade Matte, with a through-construction 3-piece maple neck and an inlay-less pao ferro fretboard. Electronics are a powerful set of EMG PX/JX pickups with a Dark Glass Tone Capsule circuit for all your tone-control needs!

I bought this bass less than a year ago as a backup for my other Spector. It has maybe 2 hours playing time on it. It's a great lightweight bass with low action. It has never been gigged and has lived in the case most of its life. Thre are no dings, scratches, or playwear of any kind. This model is discountinued so here's a chance to pick one up at a good price.

I will ship this bass in the US via UPS for free.
