Hate to do that be I have to make a brave cut.

FS is my beloved BSR-EG5 which i got from Hman about a year ago.

spec

Mahagony,flamed maple core
Walnut top
Ebony Fb
Gold KS hardware
New pre with coil tap switches
5 piece neck
deluxe lacqure finish (professional deglazed of lacqure to satin along normal fingering range)

The bass sound awesome, really the best instrument for gospel and funk.
This bass has a few ding including the bass stand mark at bottom of the body edge (the cheap old stand ate the lacqure)

Will consider trade with Sadowsky NYC with top + cash.

Good luck to you and me.

This being an EG model does it have the 19mm or 18mm string spacing?

+1...if it was 19mm it would have gaps between the saddles. 19mm is an option on EG models, it isn't standard.

Beautiful bass!!!!

How much would shipping from Hong Kong to Europe cost?

ps.- bump for one of the hottest Ken smiths ever. I've recently come across the 6 string version of this bass, and KS basses should really get more praise than some other brands around.
