The Legend Classic features the same famous NS curved body shape that put Spector on the map over 40 years ago. This meticulously crafted bass is constructed from proven, high-quality tonewoods, including lightweight ash body and a flame maple top. The new Legend Classic also comes complete with professional grade hardware and proprietary Bartolini pickups.

The Legend Classic offers the coveted Spector NS body design at a price that is well within the reach of all bassists. The extremely comfortable curved body is crafted from solid ash and sports a genuine figured maple top, a three piece maple neck, a 24 fret pau ferro fingerboard, and professional quality die-cast hardware. Specially designed Bartolini pickups are complemented by Spector’s TonePump Jr. active tone controls that offer 12dB boost and cut as well as interactive treble and bass controls. Adorned with a high gloss finish that accentuates the beautifully figured maple, the Legend Classic offers the looks, tone, and playability of basses twice its price.

Needed a 5 string and had always liked the look of the Spector basses. This one came in stellar conditions. I did replace the strings almost immediately but other than that, which is a personal preference it was spot on out of the box. The pickups offer a truly wide variety of tones and work well with the low B string. Amazingly balanced for such a small body.All the fret ends are well polished and I noted no high frets or dead spots on the neck. Giving it a little oil and quick polish on the next I noticed it was very clean. Many import guitars and basses have really dirty fretboards for some reason, it's like they don't clean it after crowning or polishing the frets. There was only minor residue on this one. Speaking of necks I didn't know how I would like the Pau Ferro Fingerboard but it's more dense than other examples I have owned and the color (stain?) is very nice, definitely darker and not as orange as some others.Overall I'm very impressed. My son will probably play this one more than I do but I plan to pickup the 4 string version for me in a couple of months.
