I was browsing Guitar Fetish for some parts and saw they have another factory buyout sale going on. I've wanted to take a Spector and do a Billy Sheehan style pickup setup but haven't found anything inexpensive enough that I wanted to use. I found this on Guitar Fetish's website. I don't have luthier skills so this is definitely beyond what I can do to fix it, but does anyone know what the brand is? It looks very similar to a Spector but I haven't seen the brand. There are some others on the website with the same brand just shaped slightly differently.

That looks like it was intended to be a 100% Spector ripoff to be sold on AliExpress or whatever the place is where people are buying their dirt cheap counterfeit basses these days.

This example is in particularly bad condition. I've done quite a bit of restoration work in my day and this would be a challenge.

The price is outrageous. I'd be willing to spend ten bucks on that but not a cent more.

Guitar Fetish has been listing these for some time. I think they bought a big auction lot of this stuff. Some obvious QC mistakes, fire in the factory stuff, flood stuff, you name it. If it were dirt cheap it might be worth it. As it stands their new offerings aren't much more coin.
