Spector Bass Comparison (NS-2, Euro-4LX, NS-2A) 

All 3 of them sound bloody amazing... but that NS-2 is on another level!! 👌

I love the flavor that miniscule amount of buzz brings to the table. It's virtually impossible to rank these from best to worst. I hear clear differences between them but couldn't choose a winner. This video is definitely a resource for all people interested in different Spector sounds. -pac

I didn’t think I’d like the Euro the best but I actually do, thank you for the comparison

The White NS2-A sounds bloody great to me, for the value and its sounds - I ranks it the best.

Count me in to Team NS-2A

Maple fretboard sounds beautiful.

The first one sounded best. NS-2 USA

I feel NS-2A sound is similar to EURO, I prefer NS-2, though I own a euro 4. the maple fingerboard version is cool, the sound is punchy and powerful, and more detail than the other two

Great stuff man, thanks!

Stormbringer is coming ! ;)

Wow! Thank you for doing this comparison! :) I picked up a black Euro 4 with chrome hardware about a month ago! There certainly is a difference in tone between the NS-2 and the Euro isn't there? Thanks again! Best wishes-Brent

Nice comparison, I always thought that the NS-2A had dot inlays...are there stickers on top?

What fingerboard woods are on the Euro and NS-2A? I sounded to me like the mids were much more present on the NS-2 and I am tempted to chalk it up more to the maple 'board most of all, assuming the other 2 are ebony. However I can imagine the NS-2A might be rosewood. I have a Euro LT5 that sounds much more like your NS-2. It's got a maple board, but a 35" scale is probably also helping bring out the mids.

Wuao great play through, so the first one is an NS-2 Second one is a Euro and the third is an NS-2A ?

The HAZ preamp has more a "bright" sound. The tonepump is more mellow. I think that's the main difference. The HAZ tends to be more superior IMO. But Instill like the Tonepump on my Euro 4 LX Black Cherry😍

All three sound good. The NS2 has the most refined sound, but I am surprised at how close the Euro gets, aside from the much higher treble range. I bet with the treble turned down to flat, it would get even closer to the HAZ. The KHAZ gets closer to the HAZ but seems to lack a tiny bit of liveliness or bite. Are the strings the same on all three? I wonder how much of the Euro's zingy top end has to do with the Tonepump, or if it has a brand new set of strings compared to the others. Are they all using the same gauge and brand of strings? Also, the Euro sounded the loudest - how do you have the internal trim pot set?

What is the 2nd riff you played each time?

I think the NS-2 might just have dead strings but I personally liked the Euro the most.

I'm between the NS-2 and the NS-2A.

what is this live thing?

oddly enough the NS2A sounds better to me.

Whoops I forgot to ask what strings you were using on each bass?- Thank you- Brent

which model is the white one?

spector sounds weird to me, it is caused by the emg pickups or what 😰 I like how it sounds

Ns-2 aguliar pre Euro lx tone pump Ns2a bts or khaz?

🤘

They all need decent set up . Get them put through the Plek Pro and they will far better .
