Spector Introduces “High Performance” NS Ethos and NS Dimension Basses

Spector "High Performance" NS Ethos and NS Dimension Basses

Spector has added onto their NS Ethos and NS Dimension lines with the HP, or “High-Performance”, Series. The new models take Spector’s NS neck-through design and fit them with EMG DC pickups, a Darkglass Tone Capsule preamp, and illuminating side dots.

“The HP basses also offer a stunning selection of solid finishes, paying homage to some of the brand’s most legendary models,” Spector adds.

The NS Ethos and NS Dimension each come in four and five-string versions. They are crafted with a 3-piece maple neck, solid alder body wings, and an ebony fretboard. In addition to Volume and Blend controls, the Darkglass Tone Capsule preamp provides each bass with Bass, Mid, and Hi-Mid knobs. The main difference between the Ethos and the Dimension is that the Dimension features a multi-scale neck from 34″ to 36″ on the four-string and 34″ to 37″ on the five-string.

The Spector NS Ethos HP and NS Dimension HP basses have prices starting at $1,799 and $1,999, respectively.
