Nearly pulled the trigger on this but only got a few more months of gear abstinence to go. Great buy for someone not partaking/ already out:

Snagged a BR6. It’s 20 years old. Plays like butter. Has the old 9v preamp. I just love it. It’s so articulate and has the sound I have been wanting. Super easy to punch through a mix with miss and not sizzle highs. 
 

Spent some time cleaning it, getting the neck and bridge tweaked and it’s singing now. Feeling pretty spoiled with a sadowsky 5 and a smith 6 but I’ve been playing most of my life and wanted these instruments since i started as a kid. 
 

was considering an F bass or fedora but I just prefer the smith tone at the end of the day.

Great news @TheGhostofJaco however 🤣🤣 We need to see this shiny clean new addition to the family.

Yep for sure, I am replacing the input jack and restringing it, and then pics will be posted.

The Smith @ the Gallery has gone already.

Ok here it is. 20 years old and plays fantastic.

That's a nice, clean example you have there. Looking good for 20 years play 👍 Have fun with it.
