In April 2011 for my birthday, I purchased my first Spector which was a Legend 4 Custom, I returned it fairly quickly because it was what I remembered a Spector to be
I needed emergency bypass surgery in Sept 2010.Īfter I semi recovered I turned to playing bass again to help heal. I was diagnosed with severe Heart Disease in 2008. I worked there from 1998 to 2010, but during the majority of that time I barely played my basses. So I settled for a call center job and eventually worked for JVC Electronics (my second love, electronics) I soon learned it would be a very difficult time making it in the music industry. (They called me and told me I was their 2nd choice) John, The Gin Blossoms, Fernando Saunders, Rob Halford.Īnd almost got a position at Arista Records as Whitney Houston's A&R person. I did get to work with some Big Name people like, Sheryl Crow, Dr. I received a B.S in Music in 1993 and attempted to be an Audio Engineer. I even owned 2 W Corvette's, before I got into Spector. So when I when I was teen I had the following bassesīurnside Headless bass with Steinberger licensed bridge No internet back then so every few months my Dad would take me into NYC to 48th street to look for a Spector. I always wanted Spector but could never find one. My Favorite Band was Kiss, Thus fueling more of the Spector desire.Įven back was I was younger I was quickly obsessed with owning more than one bass. I was a Metal head when I was in High School. My first electric bass was a Memphis P Bass. (we all know what bass I am referring to) I became a big Police Fan since I saw Sting playing an upright bass and a White Electric Bass. I started playing Upright Bass when I was in the 6th Grade (because I was the biggest kid in the class) I apologize ahead of time this may turn into a novel. In fairly late with this since it took me a while to compile all the Spectors I have owned since 2011.
