Alright folks, have a look! She's a 2006 P series, which are the best-of-the-bolt-on Smiths (5-piece necks, graphite rods). First and only owner, bought NOS just a few months ago.
Specs: Maple core, bubinga top/back, maple/bubinga laminated neck, pao-ferro fretboard, gold hardware, 18V electronics.
Condition: Pristine! I have babied this bass and it shows. Never gigged. Could easily pass for new hanging in a store (given its age, it essentially is new).
Sound: Classic Smith - clear, modern, articulate, just a tasteful touch of growl.
Playability: The ultimate. I've played several high-end basses, and owned a few Smiths. Smiths are the best-playing basses, and this is the best-playing Smith I've laid hands on.
I wish I could keep her around, but times tell me I need the money more. Hoping to avoid having to go the auction route.
New street price: $4275.
Asking price: $2900 (plus insured shipping CONUS), with case, strap, and new set of Smith Burners strings.
Thanks for looking, and Merry Christmas!
