Stuart Spector Circa 1975 |
Stuart Spector is renowned as a maker of the
highest quality electric bass guitars available,
but Stuart himself is not a bassist; he's a
guitarist. One of the best-kept secrets in the
guitar manufacturing industry is that all of the
things that make
SPECTOR® Basses so special are
also present in SPECTOR® Electric Guitars.
Stuart Spector has always made electric
guitars along side the bass guitars he is famous
for. In his Brooklyn, NY workshop he made the
G-1™ and the NS-6™ (then an electric guitar and
not a six-string bass as the NS-6 model number
is today). During the Kramer Era the NS-6™
electric guitar would be built on the exact same
body platform as the
NS-Bass™. But Stuart always
felt that these guitars, although well made and
great sounding, never reached the level of
elegance and purity that he sought.
Over
the past several years Stuart has spent time
refining his NS-Body™ inspired electric guitar
designs and the resulting product of his labors,
the ARC6™ and
ARC6-B™ guitars are the ultimate
result. Encouraged by the fantastic balance,
tone and feel of the ARC6™ , Stuart took another
one of his original electric bass designs, the
REX BROWN™ model and started the process of
translating it into an electric guitar; the
RX-GT™.
New for 2011 are two new classic
designs, the "WebCaster™" and the "PodCaster™";
both inspired by those classic guitars of the
1950's and 60's. Like the incredibly popular
Coda™ Bass, these new guitars promise a fresh
take of well-known and often imitated designs.
Each experiment has resulted in superior
guitar designs which are quickly embraced by
professional guitarists from many different
musical backgrounds. And each new model
further cements the reputation for quality and
excellence. Word which have become
synonymous with the SPECTOR® name. |
