FS/FT: Ken Smith BSR5-EG elite 5 string wide spacing (19mm)

Sign in to disble this ad
For Sale or For trade, my Ken Smith BSR5EG Elite 5 string. The specs you would expect for an Elite. Lacquer finish, flammed walnut top, 5 piece body wings, walnut core, ebony fingerboard, upgraded with 19mm string spacing! It's in absolute minty fresh condition.

I'm looking for $4000 OBO.

Only trades I will consider are for Ken Smith BSR5GN or Black Tiger with the normal 18mm spacing with cash coming my way. I want a Ken Smith that matches my beloved BSR5J-MW in spacing, which is what I am used too since that's my main bass. I may also consider an Alleva-Coppolo LM5 or RA5.

This is a killer bass and seller people..It used to be mine. And a killer price...I custom ordered this from Ken through the Atlanta Bass Gallery. You will pay over $5500 to get this from them with all these options.

I think it is right around 9 lbs. I'll check on the bathroom scale.

According to my scale, this is closer to 10lbs. Just as comfy as all the rest of my basses.

Is this a Black Tiger Elite? I'm a Smith newbie and a little bit lost in their catalog.
Anyway, international shipping available?
Bump for a great bass!

Yes, I can ship overseas, but it will obviously not be cheap.

No, this is a BSR5EG, not a Black Tiger elite.
