Spector Launching New Euro Koa Basses at Olympia

Ronnie Dungan • MMR Global • March 1, 2018

Spector Bass UK has announced the launch of limited edition Euro Koa basses at this year’s London Bass Guitar Show on 3rd-4th March at Olympia.

Launched exclusively in the UK by distributor Barnes & Mullins, the four and five-string basses have been designed specifically for UK customers and are available in one-off, limited quantities. They offer a new twist on Spector’s professional Euro series basses, featuring a hand-crafted and carved body made European Alder with a Koa top – available in natural stain gloss and matte finishes.

They feature a three-piece Maple neck with internal graphite rod supports and a 24 fret Rosewood fingerboard inlaid with Mother of Pearl crown fret markers. Other high-end appointments include a lightweight zinc brass alloy Spector bridge, brass nut and gold hardware. Each bass includes in a Spector branded hardcase.

Electronics come in the form of a Spector 9v Tone Pump circuit with Aguilar OBP3 pre amp (master volume, pickup blend, stacked bass/treble and mid pots). Four-string models feature PJX EMG-X pickups with 5 string models loaded with 40TWX EMG-X’s.

Spector Limited Edition Euro Koa models are available to order now for £2735 (four-string) and £2800 (five-string).

Four-string gloss and five-string matte models will be on show for the first time at Spector Bass UK’s A22 booth at the London Bass Guitar Show this coming weekend.
