Accordingly, the Neck-Through electric bass is comfortable to play thanks to its gently curved body with a burl poplar top, while an EMG PJ pickup setup and active Spector TonePump 2-band equalizer deliver a wide sound spectrum. High-quality hardware in the form of Spector Locking Bridge, brass saddle and Gotoh 707 mechanics completes the Spector Euro 4 LX.

Neck-Through construction and high playing comfort

Accordingly, the heart of the four-string is the continuous, three-piece maple neck with reinforcing graphite inlays, while corpus wings made of alder and burl poplar complete the design. The ebony fingerboard also contains the typical Spector Crown inlays for marking the layers.
