SECTOR SPOTLIGHT Bass Guitars Spector


Central to the Spector range – the latest brand to join Barnes & Mullins’ portfolio – is the Professional Series and the Legend models in particular. The Legend Classic models (pictured, left) are available in four, five or six-string variants – priced from £649 – and feature a bolt-on neck, Spector designed EMG active pickups and black hardware. Similarly, the Legend Custom basses (pictured, right) are available in four or five-string versions starting at £789 and benefit from a set neck, EMG-HZ pickups and gold hardware.

The new Fret-King Black Label range includes the Perception four and five-string basses (£599 and £629, pictured). Built with American alder body, Canadian hard rock maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, the Perception is traditional in feel yet contemporary in execution and offers the solid, precise tonality that underpins so many musical genres. The Trev Wilkinson-designed Vintage bass range now includes Tony Butler of Big Country’s Signature bass (£299) alongside many classic instrument shapes and tones to suit any bassist – from students through to touring professionals, as well as the Vintage ICON bass line of distressed instruments. Then there's the Encore brand, which includes the E4 (£159 or £229 as part of a player pack) and the 7/8 size E20 (£139 or £195 with player pack), which is perfect for small hands and bass players who like to travel light.
