I don't think I have ever been this excited about spending this much money. About an hour ago I ordered a new BSR GN 5 string bass. I am getting a Bubinga top and bottom with a Walnut core. I like the way the dark woods look and sound. This will be my 4th Smith, but my first neck through. I play gospel, and my slap tone is very important to me. I was looking for a aggressive articulate tone (hope I nailed it with this combination). The hard part is going to be waiting the 4 to 6 month period. This is the first time in 12 years I have not had a Ken Smith bass on hand. I sold my 6 string a few weeks ago. What can I say, I am a 5 string kind of guy, but I at least had to give a 6 string a try.
