EssentialTension Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I have not played a Peerless Smoked Bass but a bassist in another band we supported a couple of years ago had one and sounded great causing me to buy a Peerless Retromatic B2 like the stock photo below. It's an excellent bass and I imagine the Smoked is also excellent. Peerless have made hollow body guitars and basses for many years including the Epiphone Jack Casady bass and the Epiphone Casino guitar. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6feet7 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I had a Retromatic B2 and, apart from it's wonderful looks, it was a great bass.Shame they only made it as a 4 string or else I'd have kept it. Peerless make guitars and basses for many other companies (a bit like Cort) so you can't really go wrong with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grahambythesea Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 There was a gorgeous natural finish “custom” smoked bass on Reverb for a very long time on which they kept reducing the price. I reckon they sold it at a bargain price to some likely fella. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
