Let me just say that this bass is amazing!
I'm selling it just because I have a bad case of gas (Smith!!). The body wood is Mahogany - the top, pickup covers, and headstock veneer are Walnut - gorgeous Walnut - check out the continuation of the wood grain artfully matched on the pickup covers.
The 35" scale neck is Maple with Bubinga runners, and the fretboard is a tasteful golden Birdseye Maple , accented with Macassar Ebony binding and block inlays, matching the control knobs.
Another distinctive feature is the slotted classical style headstock.
The pickups are Aero dual coils , the pre is the Bart 3 band with 3 position mid selector ( my favorite Bartolini preamp ).
"P" is for the piezo bridge pickup , made by ABM.
The control knobs are volume ( with push/pull active/passive ) , magnetic blend , mag/piezo blend, piezo tone, and 3 band EQ for the mags , and the aforementioned 3 positon mid selector.
The bridge is by ABM, and the tuners are Hipshot ultralights.
Asking $2500 or trade for a Smith Black Tiger 5er or BSR5EG plus a lot of my cash. Might also consider trades for a MTD 535, R-Basses, Pavel Jazz Deluxe or? +/- cash.
