ON HOLD
Very rare and unique. 20th Anniversary BSR5J-X.
Only 11 of these were made! Completed in 1998 and this bass is totally mint and in collector's condition.
Avodire body wings with a lacewood center block. 3 piece maple and mahogany neck with grenadilla fretboard. 18mm standard Smith spacing. Very light at 8.5lbs. Well balanced..and like a Smith..plays like butter. It has a more open and organic sound than a Smith with soapbars but still definitely has the Smith undertones to it.
It comes with the original Smith hard case, paperwork, strap etc.
$2000 shipped
Trades: Here is what I may be looking for..in order of priority. Sadowsky P/J 5 Metro or NYC, Nordy VJ5, Fender Roscoe Beck V. Additional money on your side or my side accordingly. I will consider other trades but the ones above are what I am really looking to find.

I have to say, even though these aren't his mainstream, I far prefer them to the other models, and it sure seems like a particularly good deal on this one, too. |
