I've gotten quite a few questions about this bass. I am posting some history here: Beautiful Fretless 6er styled after a Smith BSR6 by Haydn Williams in England (previously with Overwater). Haydn Williams built the bass for the original owner. If you ever wanted a Smith fretless, then this is a great way to get one for a lot less money. It is in amazing condition, plays sweet and buttery with super low action. And it is gorgeous. The original owner had Vinnie Fodera work on setting this up and Vinnie recessed the bridge slightly into the body to make the whole thing sleeker and allow for super low action. Listen to the clip made by the original owner. Sweet sounding and playing ax. https://www.talkbass.com/attachments/1448122_90c4c7c718b1bddd8c9beaa8ba25774e-mp3.675346/
