Peerless Smoke Bass - serial #0000 - demo/prototype

2008 Peerless Smoked Bass Prototype - Serial #0000

This is the only hollow body Peerless Smoked bass in existence in the world. It is the first prototype the Peerless had made for demo purposes in Europe around 2008. All other Smoked Bass guitars made by Peerless are solid body, with laminated maple. This is truly a one of a kind instrument. It has a classic Jack Cassidy Gibson sound. The guitar was on the road a lot with the Peerless rep in Europe for several years, but it plays and sounds just like it is brand new. There is no wear and tear outside of some tarnishing/fading of the metal pickup covers.
