5-string electric bass with two humbucker pickups and passive electronics
With the Spector Performer 5 Red Stuart Spector offers the ambitious beginner a versatile 5-string E-Bass with optimal playing characteristics and the typical NS-Body-Design. For an appealing sound of all five strings Spector not only relies on a nato body and a bolt-on maple neck, but also on an extended 35" scale length (889 mm), which guarantees a defined tone development thanks to the tight string tension. The handy neck profile with 44.5 mm nut width also combines buttery-smooth playability with ample room for fingering. With two passive Spector humbuckers, the Spector Performer 5's bass amp delivers multi-faceted tones for just about any genre. To customize the tones, 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 Performer 5 Metallic Red from Spector is tuned accurately and robustly.
The Spector Performer 5 Metallic Red convinces as a typical Spector bass with first-class playing characteristics and multifaceted sounds.
