Spector USA Custom NS2 Bass Guitar – Rain Glow – #1603

Original Shape and Unmistakeable Sound – The Spector USA Custom NS2 Bass Guitar in Rain Glow

A true modern classic first introduced in 1977, Spector NS basses have established the unmistakeable industry standard for all modern, neck-thru body electric basses to follow. The original NS instrument was designed by Stuart Spector and Ned Steinberger in Brooklyn, NY.

Since then, the NS has taken on a life of its own. The distinct, unmistakable curves have attracted professional bass players the world over to these exquisite instruments. Beyond its world-class design elements, the neck-thru construction of these instruments provides players with unprecedented levels of stability and sustain, bringing a level of definition to bass never before heard. All of this natural tone is enhanced with active circuitry. The coveted HAZ pre-amp is the source of the sound, providing the famous “Spector growl” when paired with your favorite amplifier and effects.

Spector NS instruments are individually built by a small team of builders in Woodstock, NY from the finest source materials, including hand-selected tone woods from the most fertile regions of the world. Each 3-piece neck is carved from tempered North American Maple and paired with a Pau Ferro fingerboard. Every instrument is outfitted with custom, professional-grade hardware including Spector’s hi-mass locking bridge, Dunlop strap locks, and Gotoh tuners. The sound and feel of a true USA Spector instrument is second-to-none.
