    Brand new. Unplayed condition. Gorgeous, "clear as a bell" tone. No damage or marks, protective plastic film is still on the pickguard. This is a fabulous Martin in every way. Includes Martin hard shell case. This features the Fishman Prefix Plus T system. Gotoh Res-O-Lite tuners. This bass has been discontinued and replaced by a model with cheaper woods and an entry level pickup/preamp. $1475 shipped in CONUS. Check out my stellar TB feedback.
