@r3ality1 3 года назад

Yep. I saw the video and bought one (well... THAT one). Months later I still can't put it down! I've never played a bass like it. Exceptional on every level. The build is flawless. Something I was surprised by was how it sounds acoustic, oddly enough. With the fanned frets and the solid build the strings ring and sustain like a bloody piano! The Fishman Fluence pickups and electronics do take some getting used to. When he says there is no noise anywhere, he's not kidding. Crank your treble, crank the volume, be in the worst RF situation you could possibly imagine... and they are silent. I often wonder if the bass is even on. Then you play and it is so clear and expressive from nearly subsonic lows to crystal highs. Dialing in the tones you want just takes time and familiarity. With so many tonal options, from the 3-way switch, to the bass/treb knobs, pickup pan, "single-coil" mode, and all possible combinations, it just takes time on the instrument to get to know what you like; but almost anything you want can be dialed in. For me, 90% of the time I play everything 12 o'clock stock, with a slight pan to the neck pickup. Best bass I've ever owned, or played.

@eloysuopunki7926 3 года назад

I'm so glad that Spector has jumped on the Fishman train as well. Already bought an Aguilar-equipped neck-thru because they're my other favorite pickups and preamp electronics for bass.

@r3ality1 2 года назад

@@tomasmontoyapinochet9857 It's actually a fairly thin neck and plays easily. What does take some practice, and hand size helps, is getting down to the first five frets on the E and B strings with that 37" scale. With the fanned frets that can be a reach at first. I've gotten used to it by now and don't even think about it, but it definitely took some getting used to.

PSA for all of you considering this bass. Spector did not select pickups that are suitable for a multiscale 5 string. The magnetic field does not extend over the low B or high G resulting in a significant drop in output. I'd pass on these until Spector/Fishman fix this issue. www.talkbass.com/threads/spector-ns-dimension.1498200/page-5

@Miatalustrium Год назад

Had mine for a little over a year and just started touring with it. The curve is super nice with the costume I play with on stage, surprisingly, and I tune to Drop F, as there are a good amount of tasty low F notes throughout the material. Finding strings is the most frustrating part of these basses (I also have an NGDII). Stringjoy made sets that fit then stopped for a technical reason, so now its Kalium or Payson if you need anything thicker than .130. Which, my E string (at the 36.25" scale length measurment) is using a .106 for C1 and it still plays really strong, so there's no reason to need that thick if you're really not going to go below a standard 5-string tuning. Lobe this thing and was bored on the road and wanted to give extra endorsements to fill some time!

@57precision 3 года назад

@@valendis if you notice, Dingwalls are the same way. The pickups and the bridge angle aren't the same. I don't know specifically why they do this but it's probably some sort of compromise. If you angle them too much, they no longer make effective thumbrests. Also increasing the angle puts the treble side significantly further up the scale length which would change how the pickup sounds across each string.

I've made the decision to buy this guitar. My only wish is that the natural wood version came in the same flat finish as the green one. If it did, it would probably be my pick; as it is, I think I'm going for the green, even though I honestly love the wood grain of glossy one better than the green one, but I don't like the high-gloss at all. It looks "sticky" to my eye, and detracts from the otherwise natural look.
