Hi Graeme.
i don't have a spoiler to sell but would like to welcome another brit to the club. I'm sure you'll find what you want eventually but you'll probably have to ship it from the states.

Hi there! First of all; welcome to the club!!!
Perhaps getting a Spoiler from the Netherlands is an option.
Her is one:

Also check out the BassConnection in Hilversum. Every now and then a Spoiler pops up there...
And Edwin van Huik (a great bassplayer and owner of this shop) is a good guy to deal with!!

Graeme:

Welcome to the club. The more folks on this side of the pond, the merrier!

I am in the process of purchasing a Europa 6 string at the moment. The Spoiler 6 I have will be up for sale to keep the peace. It is an 86 and the serial number is 86S3908. The bass was a custom order and has very narrow string spacing though. It is in excellent condition with very little wear on it. It is walnut front and back with a 5 piece maple and purpleheart neck. Walnut crown headstock with silver Alembic logo.

Jacko has seen, heard, and played the bass as well.

The bass is in Edinburgh at the moment, but may eventually end up back across the water.

If you are at all interested please contact me directly at mpisanek@gmail.com.
