Maybe selling my Spector Q6 Pro (UK)

[Machines]

I'm thinking about trading my Spector 6er for something a little simpler.

Bought new from Soundcontrol just over a year ago - and in immaculate condition, it really could be sold as new. It's got a great sound to it and i'd be sad to see it go, but i'm not giving it enough attention compared to my 5 string, and i'd much rather a 4 string instead.

The holoflash finish is very unique and looks fantastic under bright stage lights.

So basically i'd like to know if anyone is interested - email machinesofhate @ blueyonder.co.uk with any interest.

Specs:
Body: Basswood
Neck: Maple
Fingerboard: Rosewood
Bridge: Brass
Pickups: 2 x EMG-HZ
Preamp: EMG-BTS (2 band)
Finish: Holoflash Black

How is the neck dive on that? It looks like it would be bad because the upper horn ends at the 15th fret.

It's not too bad - depends if you have a slippery strap on..

[pukeboy66]

is it only to people in the UK?

Matt, I know Tim_commerfordism is interested in a Q6, just a heads up

That's right.

Yeah cheers i've already spoken to him - he said he didn't like the colour.

[bottlerocket]

Good luck selling it. I think it's ugly but I bet it sounds great.

What kind of price range are you looking for?

I'm estimating it's way out of my price range, but I'd like to know anyway, just in case.

[HELLonWHEELS]

The shpae of that thing is kinda akward, how does it sit? And what does that paint job look like in person

[Pastorius]

It actually looks like it's got quite a bit of neck RISE on it there, the body looks like it's really heavy and pulling it down.

£330 inc P&P.

That's because it's slightly offset - bit like a Jazz.

[skingle]

I like the bass but god damn i don't know if I could deal with that colour.

[Pastorius]

That's a nice price, I'm very interested.

I'll have to see the state of my bank account after my student loan comes in.

But I'm VERY interested!

[d-basser]

I want, I want so bad but iam poor, currently trying to buy a laptop for uni and my student loan will be for food for the year :(

[katana_manatee]

Wha?? I got my one for 320 new.

[d-basser]

^where in glasgow?

[British Kid]

if that was available in the US, and i had enough money (maybe i do, i really dont know what it would cost) i would buy that, flashy colors and all.

[bobbass4k]

I'm very very interested in this, Solihulls near birmingham isnt it? How much would you knock off the price if i picked it up?

[katana_manatee]

Soundcontrol, although the guy did give me a bit of a deal I remember now, I think he knocked off about thirty quid.

I just think that used, asking 330 quid for a used bass which retails at about 350 new is a bit much. Even including postage and packaging.

If you do go to get it there you might have to order it in, they would get it from another soundcontrol in the UK, only takes like a week though.

[Pastorius]

Don't mean to be a dick, but didn't you get this for 330 new with case?

I'd rather just get a new one and haggle them down myself :p

Not sure about the case, but with a little haggling it is easy getting it down to that or less.

They're discontinued, you try and find one :D.

Supply and demand. If there aren't any for sale and theres a demand - the prices goes up, vice versa if there's loads of them and no-one wants them, price goes down.

The Q series is discontinued and I severely doubt Soundcontrol have any Q6's. The fact me and you got the bass cheap doesn't mean we have to sell it cheap.

If the price is too high I simply won't have anyone interested, but i'm not willing to sell it for less than £300 as that's what it is worth to me, i'd rather keep it than sell it for less.

Ahhh, if they are discontinued then I fully understand. :)

[Pastorius]

Aaaah didn't realise they were discontinued. Apologies for my dickness :p

[JeBuSrOcKs]

damn i wish i had £330 now as im would be rather tempted. ive been wanting a six string but the fact that i have a ****ty job that hardly ever gives me a shift means im still a poor bastard :(

[Machines]

And here it is on eBay..

[Esp Griffyn]

Im sure they offer them in nicer colours now.

[trumpeter]

I love it, so much, looks gorgeous in the last picture.

[Akira]

Wow. I would be all over that if I were in the UK. I really want a sixer, and that holoflash finish is practically worth the price alone. Gorgeous bass.

[DaromahBassPlayer]

I sent an email over Ebay. Hope you like what I offered, Machines. I can send pics if interested :chug:

[Machines]

I have replied.

[DaromahBassPlayer]

I have replied to your reply! I will post pics asap when I can get hold of a camera or go to http://www.myspace.com/Icebound for some live pics! :smash:

[Machines]

Cheers - have thought about it and I don't think a Precision is really up my street. I need the sale more so anyway.

[Machines]

It's now been sold via Buy It Now for £300.
