Under your message body text window (where you type your comments), you should see the next option, "upload attachment" and "filename". Click "browse" button to select a file from your computer. Make sure it's a jpeg (jpg). Once you find it, hit "add the file". After you've uploaded the file, you should now see the file name next to attachments and the option, "place inline". Click on place inline to put image in your message.

Lefty USA Rex Brown, made for Jason Christopher of Prong.

\m/


Not to correct this but I don't think Spector will build a USA model.. I have had numerous conversations with PJ and Stuart. The shop is not set up for lefty instruments. The CR guys will have that covered. Jason Christopher's bass is a CR. Here is a post on Facebook of his bass from Spector. They mention CR. Thats Czech Republic. Nice bass tho. They still do good work over there.

Snapped this MIK a month or so ago @ GC. Previous owner painted the neck black (badly). repositioned the straplocks to match CFs and/or US (badly) but upgraded the PUPs to EMGs 35DC (gooood) + B11RB preamp (ok). Long story short, I'm contemplating selling a 1991 Foundation, a 1986 RB650, a 1994 SR500, a kidney and maybe a child or two to get a Rebop...I'm even trying to convince wifey to go on vacation to the Czech Republic... ;)

Yeah, I saw that post.

Unless I'm totslly missing it, it appears they don't have a RexCR on their website so I assumed it must have been a USA, since I knew it wasn't Korean.

Oh well.

Not sure if I missed something but the 2015 price list does not have ANY lefty listed and black cherry was dropped from MIKs (no lefty mention there too)...

They aren't on the price list but Spector will still make Euro 4 LX basses.

I couldn't say how much you'd save, BUT you may be able to get an artist/endorce price as opposed to free like the big guns. It don't hurt to try for this

Sorry, I've been off for a few days and just saw your post PlannedSarcasm. I'm in Toronto, Canada but got this bass shipped to Buffalo, NY from some place in the West Coast (Oregon, I think...)

Reverb! It was listed for 2 days i believe but the seller only had listed as a lefty on the title, not on the description, so it wouldn't appear when you browse for lefty basses, you had to browse only for Spector basses. And it was listed as a local pick up only by mistake. The seller was on top of his game, it was a very smooth transaction/communication!
