The Euro CST draws inspiration from our Woodstock, NY-based Custom Shop, introducing all-new tonewoods, electronics, and finish combinations never seen in the Euro Series. Each Euro CST instrument is meticulously crafted using premium materials, featuring a striking, highly figured Poplar Burl top, a resonant European Ash body, and a 3-piece North American Maple neck paired with an Ebony fingerboard adorned with laminated Abalone Crown inlays. These basses are equipped with a lightweight aluminum bridge for precise and reliable intonation. Premium active EMG X Series pickups deliver the exceptional clarity, attack, and silent operation that defines the Spector sound.
Spector is proud to offer the all-new Spector Legacy preamp for the Euro CST range. Developed in collaboration with Darkglass Electronics, this preamp captures the classic ‘Spector growl’ heard on countless iconic recordings with added versatility.
