Spector bass copies

I have two of them. The black one seems to have slightly more effort put into it (body has a bevel) and is louder acoustically, and is very hard to photograph (the black finish is like a mirror!). The off-white one has a nice sparkly finish and is lighter.

There are several differences between them - note the pickup locations, the aforementioned body bevel on the black one, length of the neck's "tongue" into the body, horn size & shape. The off-white one is about 1/2 - 1 inch shorter overall.

Both are very fun for slap. Still tweaking the setup on them - seems the necks are prone to needing a little bit of a shim (on these two, anyway).
