For Sale: Ken Smith BSR 4B

Unfortunately I have to sell my beautiful 1997 4 String Ken Smith Bass. Here's a description from Ken Smith himself:

"...this is a BSR 4B. The B model was an upgrade package for the BSR 'M' model with a package of extras, 3-band EQ (2-band was standard then on the M model), ebony fingerboard (upgraded from morado), top dots (was an option) and gold hardware (chrome was standard). So this model had about $400 of options list price which in usa is $300 street price then. We only made this model/package for a year or so. Then it was just the M model with upgrades, not a different model. M-G was an M with gold..."

Looks, feels and sounds great!

Comes with the original Ken Smith hardcase.

I can't get your link to work. "No such directory exists"

Anyway, what does it have on the headstock an "S" or "Ken Smith"?

Me too. No link. Dying to see photos !

Try photobucket. It's easy. When you see a photo on there, just right click the bottom code you see (there are about four codes in a column) and it will say "copied". Then just paste it to your thread.

Sorry about the pictures. I will put up a new link as soon as I'm home.

Regarding price I was hoping for offers from you guys! I'll upload the pictures and then you can see for yourself what you are willing to pay. It's in perfect playing condition. But it looks worn, because I actually used and played this bass on a daily basis!

I believe the rules dictate you must post a price.

The pictures are not very flattering for the bass (it looks better in real life), but I don't want to hide anything (signs of wear or scratches)! It's a great bass and that's why I played it a couple of hours every day for 2 to 3 years.

I might be interested in trading for an Amp or Combo.

We can discuss the price. What do you guys think a more reasonable price would be?
