Ken Smith CR6 Maple/Walnut

Sign in to disble this ad
For everyone inquiring as to whether I have a 6 string Ken Smith forsale, here ya go. I have decided to sell my recently purchased 1993 Ken Smith Chuck Rainey 6 due to another recent purchase(Kudela 6 on the way). The bass was refinished before I purchased it, im told by an old gibson employee. Since I have had it, I upgraded the preamp to Smith's latest 18 volt pre. It has the dip switches so that you can adjust to the optimal frequencies for the bass. It is in overall great shape and does not show the wear you would usually see on a 93 model. This model is rare and well sought after. New Price is $2000 shipped conUSA. Paypal echeck preferred. It will come shipped in the OHSC. International Shipping OK.... Just note.. it may have to be shipped with neck and body separate.
Pics to come

Hello from Buffalo
What kind of finish is on the bass know? Is it a tint on the neck to? How does it compare to your other Smiths in tone and feel?

Not sure about the type of finish as it is not poly coated. This bass as compared to my other Smith has more of the distinct Smith bite but yet warm due to the walnut core. Yes the neck is tinted too

I have three basses combined worth more the $2600 that I'd trade you if you were interested in them.
But you're not.
So free bump!!!!
