Spector Unveils Limited Euro LX Series with Maple Boards and Custom Shop Flair
Spector has announced the Limited Euro LX Series, elevating its Euro LX design with inspiration from the Spector Custom Shop. Each has a maple fingerboard, which the company points out is a rarity in the Euro line, as well as a matching figured maple headstock.
“Crafted with precision, these limited models boast a fully curved figured maple top with European alder back, paired with a neck-thru 3-piece North American maple neck and fingerboard, adorned with Spector’s signature Mother of Pearl Crown Inlays,” they share.
The basses are fitted with a Spector Legacy preamp and EMG pickups for the “Spector growl.” The Limited Euro LX Series comes in four- and five-string versions with 34-inch and 35-inch scales, respectively. Spector offers three gloss finishes – Black Cherry, Ultra Violet, and Black Stain – which are complemented by gold hardware.
The Spector Limited Euro LX basses are available now at $3,779 for the four-string and $3,899 for the five-string. The Black Cherry and Ultra Violet variants are available now from select dealers, while the Black Stain is exclusive to Sweetwater.

PLEASE make clear in product reviews if any left-handed versions are available! Thank you.
Jim, it’s in the spec list, where I’ve been adding it to as many stories as I can. It doesn’t make sense to mention “no left hand available” in the story itself since that is so often the case. Please check the spec list before commenting.
Hi Kevin. Thanks for getting back to me and for now including the situation with handedness orientation(s) in the spec lists. I always try to click on it, but it often doesn’t open up.
