4-string electric bass with PJ pickup setup and passive electronics
With the Spector Performer 4 Black Stuart Spector gives the ambitious beginner a versatile E-Bass with optimal playing characteristics and the typical NS body design. For an appealing sound Spector relies on a nato body and a bolt-on three-piece maple neck, whose Amara ebony fingerboard carries 24 frets for a full two-octave range. The practical neck profile with 39,9 mm nut width combines a buttery smooth playability with enough room for fingering. With a passive PJ pickup setup consisting of a split coil in the middle position and a single coil at the bridge, the Spector Performer 4 delivers multi-faceted tones at the bass amp, ranging from rich thrust from the bass cellar to wiry assertiveness. To adjust the timbre, the passive electronics provide separate volume and tone controls for each pickup. Last but not least, the massive Spector Performer bridge guarantees optimal intonation and string action adjustment, while a graphite nut and precise die-cast tuners ensure the Spector Performer 4 Black is tuned accurately and robustly.
The Spector Performer 4 Black convinces as a typical Spector bass with first-class playing characteristics and multifaceted sounds.
