Ken Smith Custom BSR `B' (Burner) 4-string (Maple body)

For Sale - $1025 shipped CONUSGreat condition and comes with Ken Smith hard case (not certain it's original) and a strap. This bass is super easy to play, even for a clumsy fingerstyle guitarist like myself.


Made in Japan with finished assembly here in the states by Ken Smith. This is basically a Custom Burner bass but it has the newer body design.

I got this in trade for a Taylor 12-string guitar on the Acoustic Guitar Forum. (Look me up, I'm flagstaffcharli there as well.) I'm a songwriter. The simple truth is that I need a lot less bass than this, and I could use a nicer mandolin. So cash is nice.

I'll consider trades for a lesser bass plus cash. I prefer something like a Carvin or Fender Highway One & would prefer a hardshell case. (I currently own a Peavey Milestone BXP to keep me playing, but I think my ideal recording bass is somewhere between that and the Smith.)

We're remodeling our house. If I'm slow in responding I apologize in advance.

I'll accept PayPal, but I need to get my account approved to accept payments bigger than $500. So be aware that there could be a slight delay. Update: No longer an issue. I can accept full payment via PayPal.

Cheers!
Chuck

Jason,

You'd make this thing sound a lot better than me!

Because I'm not primarily a bass player, I might consider guitars or mandolins as part of a trade.

I'm looking at buying a Carvin bass kit if I sell this thing. Looks like a fun project!

I am flip floppin between 3 different basses rite now... and busy with workie work stuff... vacation next week and ill probably decide then!
 
Apparently there are a couple of Burners now on eBay. This one is the nicest - it's a Custom BSR `B' as opposed to a Standard - but I'm willing to listen to offers. I don't need to milk every dollar out of this thing, and I would like to find a good home for it. Make me a reasonable offer. I might say yes... especially if it's a local deal or someone here who is very transparent and isn't going to cause any worries.

Thanks for looking. :-)

Last bump here. It'll be here the next few days & then I'm going to have to pull it. Might just take it down to GC and trade it in.

If you're interested, please make an offer! I have an idea now of what I want to get to replace this...

Thanks!
