F.S. Ken Smith BSR5PE Zebrawood!!!

Sign in to disble this ad
Up for sale is my prized Smith BSR5PE with a rare Zebrawood top.

This is the Elite bolt on model with a 5 pc body (Zebrawood/Maple/Mahogany core/Maple/Zebrawood), gloss finish and series/parallel switches. Excellent condition and no issues. Sounds awesome! This bass is featured in the Ken Smith gallery:

http://www.kensmithbasses.com/models...zebrawood.html

I bought it a few months ago from dkterry and paid $2950, that's what I'm asking firm. The bass comes in the original Smith hard case.

Trades. I'm interested in Roscoes (Ash or Alder only) + cash, MTD 535 +/- cash, R-Basses + cash, Lakland Skyline Dunn + lots of cash, MIJ/MIA '57/'62 Fender P-Bass reissue + lots of cash or?

International OK but you must pay for the actual shipping/packing/customs etc. This is not a fire sale, the price is firm, I'm not in a hurry to sell this amazing bass, I just have gas.......

Feel free to ask any questions and thanks for looking.

Beautiful bass!

Does it still get the characteristic "doinky" Ken Smith tone despite having a mahogany core?

Yes.
This one definitely has that Smith sound.
Here's a really shot clip of the bass, just 30 seconds long and we were messing around, but still you can hear it. I'll try to record something better soon.
I hope you guys don't need a facebook account to see it.
