Exclamation Ken Smith BSR5GN Must sell ASAP $3,450 Shipped CONUS

Sign in to disble this ad
Reposting and is now for sale only. I have found my future bass so I must sell now.

I have a brand new Ken Smith BSR5GN with a highly figured book matched Avodiré top. Not something you see every day! This bass is new, so my loss is your gain! The "street price" on this baby is $4,500. Yours, with case candy $3,450.00.

I will gladly accept Paypal and other forms of Payment will be considered.

Model: BSR5GN
Scale: 34 inch
Neck: 5 piece Maple/Shedua neck-thru
Fingerboard: 24 fret Macassar Ebony (side position markers only)
Body: Bookmatched figured Avodiré top & back with matching headstock overlay and Walnut core. (Avodiré is also known as African White Mahogany/Blonde Mahogany).
Finish: Satin.
Pickups: Smith humbuckers.
Electronics: Smith B.M.T. 18 volt 3-band active EQ with adjustable 4-way internal frequency DIP switches for the bass, mid & treble controls, Series/Parallel switch for each pickup, Pickup blend and master volume.
Hardware: Smith quick string release solid brass bridge (standard 18mm string spacing), flush Dunlop straplocks, and Smith tuning gears (black).
Weight: 9.25 pounds.

This bass was completed in early June 2011, smells new because I have had it only a month or so and I had not had a chance to play it and now I decided I want something else, oh the things we do to cure that G thing!

This is one of the most difficult basses to photograph. I don't think these pictures do this beautiful indtrument justice!
