The Spector Icon NS-5 Bolt-On 5-string bass pairs the brand's fully curved alder body with a quilted maple top in Black Cherry Gloss. The Spector Custom Shop team specified the neck profile, nut width, body contours, and fingerboard radius, bringing key NS design details into the Icon series. Its 35-inch scale, 5-string layout, and onboard Aguilar electronics fit stage and studio use.
Aguilar Electronics and Direct Tone Control
Dual custom-voiced Aguilar DCB soapbar pickups feed an Aguilar OBP-2 preamp. Volume and blend controls set overall level and pickup balance, while treble cut and boost plus bass cut and boost provide onboard tone adjustment. Spector specifies deep, punchy lows and clear highs from this electronics package, giving players direct control without crowding the instrument with extra switches.
35 Inch Neck and Signature Appointments
The 3-piece maple neck carries a rosewood fingerboard with a 15.75-inch radius and 24 frets. A 1.81-inch brass nut is a key part of the Spector formula, with the manufacturer citing added clarity, brightness, and sustain. Crown inlays bring a recognizable Spector visual detail to the fingerboard.
Hardware Built Around the NS Format
Gold hardware complements the Black Cherry Gloss finish and figured maple top. A locking diecast bridge and sealed diecast tuners handle the core hardware duties, while nickel round-wound strings in 0.045 to 0.130 gauges complete the factory specification. The result is a focused 5-string platform that combines Spector body shaping, a 35-inch scale, and Aguilar electronics in one instrument.
