    This is one of my absolute babies, love it. This is my main bass, but I don't gig out or anything. Basically it has just been in my home studio. Action is low, plays fantastic, sounds fantastic. Non truss rod graphite neck. Two dings (pictured), one on the back of the body and one on the back of the neck. A brand new set of Blue Steels went on this morning. Ships in nicer gig bag, as well.

    Get it before I change my mind! $1150 to the lower 48. Thanks!

    OMG one of the best basses ever! I have a black 5/1 wearing TIs and my last Country band and the current prefer it over a Sadowsky V5, 55-94, Modulus Genesis 5 and my favorite, a P5.

    The lack of truss rod is not an issue, the neck has never moved.

    A semi-rare bass which should have been far more popular.

    If I wasn't so smitten with my P5 this would be sold.
