Frequently Asked Questions About Spector

Spector instruments are primarily manufactured in the USA, with some components sourced internationally. Final assembly and finishing take place in their Connecticut facility.

Many Spector basses, particularly those with brass hardware and dense woods, can be heavier than other bass guitars, contributing to their powerful tone and sustain.

Spector utilizes a multi-laminate neck construction, often incorporating maple and rosewood, for stability and resonance, designed to withstand temperature and humidity changes.
