A top-of-the-line beauty in rare water-cured redwood!
The Spector Limited Edition Redwood Burl NS-5XL is crafted with 75-to-100 year-old, water-cured redwood
burl. The burl rests on a platform of Spector's legendary hand-selected, premium exotic woods: maple for the neck and black
walnut for the body wings. Water-cured redwood is harvested from the stumps of redwood trees cut down 75-100 years ago that
fell into streams. These trunks were submerged in water the entire time, which washed all the resins out of the wood and replaced
them with dissolved minerals. This natural mineral enrichment process is what gives the wood its unique color and density.
This natural water curing is very similar to the method that has been used for curing violin woods in Europe for hundreds
of years.
The Spector NS-5XL 5 string bass guitar is constructed with 3-ply maple neck-thru construction with graphite
stiffening rods and a heavy-duty truss rod. It has a 34" scale rosewood fretboard with Spector's abalone crown inlays, dual
USA EMG-40DC humbuckers, an 18V 3-band active EQ preamp, premium gold-plated hardware, and a gloss finish.
