This is one of the many times that I miss having Ken Smith and his 6,000 word dissertation posts around.

Sorry man...We don't get pictures of basses like this often. Especially with Kenny being gone, they're a sight for sore eyes. Ken is a good friend of mine, as well as many of us here on TBDB. I miss his passion, knowledge and energy very much.
Your signature is very appropriate when talking about Kenny.

Seriously. Every one of his posts was like a knowledge-punch to the face.
