Fantastic example of what makes Ken Smith among the top five legendary instruments. Looks like a BSR Elite? Love my CR5M. Congrats.

The Ken Smith Club, Part 2
Love it. Just ordered a Music Area gig bag
for the show Saturday. Didn't realize how much I loved my Smith until I ran it through the GK 700rbII first time this week after a set up and new strings.
Incredible VOG tone. Can't wait.
It’s a great bass. Neck is amazing, the pickups are awesome. Neck can dial in vintage P sounds, and the “bridge” is almost Rick-ish. I don’t play it as much as I should, so may part with it so it can go to someone who plays it more, but Bud’s craftsmanship is truly top-notch.
I picked up this Jackson from GC on clearance a couple of weeks. It was 169, and I love cheap basses, and I needed a P bass of some sort. It's fun to play and sounds pretty good. Desperately needs a setup and new strings tho.
Oooo that is pretty! What is the spacing between the octave strings? Looks to be almost half the space between the pairs.
Not sure actually, I’ll have to look but it’s pretty comfy
Do have some sound clips to share? That's a wild looking instrument! Cheers!
No it’s a 2006 60th Anniversary MIA Fender Precision
Wow. That is quite the line up. What scale is that MTD? And really dig the Lull and the Sadowsky next to it.
Thx! The MTD is 30” scale (the others are 34”)…. [edit/add:] yea, the two in the middle (Lull P5 and Sadowsky WL5-22) are very special to me. Definitely, my “if I could only keep two” core basses!
