Spector Core 4 Fretless Quilt Cherry Burst 2011
Spector Core 4 Fretless, Cherry Sunburst, made in Korea 2011. This is an unusual one! Spector basses enjoy a great reputation; they were a huge deal in the 80s and 90s and still have a dedicated following to this day. This one is a bit of a twist on their usual fare: it's their classic NS body shape, but carved out for a semi-hollow body and devoid of any nasty frets. You get a handy humbucker pickup as well as a piezo, so you can choose how close to the artificial-upright sun you want to sail. It's a warm, round tone that will find a home in plenty of different genres. Being semi-hollow, it's lighter than most of the Strats and Teles on the wall, so that's a handy bonus. Quirky, but classy.
