    Down to the last of my old guard. Excellent condition and seeking a new home. My new Fodera gets all the attention. The "P" series are the top-of-the-line bolt-ons from Ken Smith. Plays like a dream with incredibly low action. Warm and articulate as you'd expect from one of Ken's basses. I've loved and used it for many years. Full specs...

    Come with original case, strap, oil, etc. I upgraded the knobs to metal ones and can include them if you're interested. The original plastic ones are in a bag in the case (see pic). Excellent overall condition w/just a couple of small surface dings that didn't really capture in photos - it's hard to see them but the "biggest" is just below the bottom>right most knob. Nothing major at all as you'll see.
