A Legacy Built on Neck-Through Innovation
Spector's identity was shaped in the 1970s, when neck-through construction helped define the boutique bass movement. This design - where the neck runs the full length of the instrument - delivers enhanced sustain, resonance, and tonal consistency. Decades later, it remains a cornerstone of the Spector sound and a benchmark for performance-driven design. The new NS Icon Neck-Through basses continue this tradition.
Custom Shop DNA, Refined for Modern Players
The NS Icon Neck Through models bring together the details that make a Spector unmistakable: Spector's fully curved body shape, custom shop neck carve, and signature crown inlays. Each bass features alder body wings paired with a 3-piece maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, a classic tonewood combination that sits perfectly in any gig. With its neck-through construction you can expect the sustain, stability, and responsiveness that have made neck-through Spectors iconic.
Visually, the NS Icon Neck Through series draws inspiration from Spector Bass custom builds. Each model is topped with highly figured quilted maple and finished in one of four gloss stain options: Black Stain, Haunted Moss, Purple Cherry, and Black and Blue. Gold hardware completes the look, including a fully intonating locking bridge, high-precision tuners, polished brass nut, and signature Spector control knobs. The series is available in both 4-string, 34" scale and 5-string, 35" scale configurations.
At the heart of each NS Icon Neck Through is a custom-voiced Aguilar electronics package, pairing Aguilar DCB pickups with an Aguilar OBP-2 preamp. This combination delivers deep, punchy lows, articulate mids, and crystal-clear highs, giving players a dynamic and musical voice that sits confidently in any mix. The 4-string models feature a Reverse P/J pickup configuration, while the 5-string models are equipped with dual soapbar pickups.
Whether on stage, in the studio, or anywhere inspiration strikes, the NS Icon Neck Through delivers the bold, powerful tone, and performance-driven design that have defined Spector basses for 50 years.
