What a beautyfull bass! That's the one I want! :eek:

Perhaps you could tell me what the neck feels like. How would you describe the neckprofile at the first fretpositions? Thanks.

Gears..
FYI, those are NOT the Gears we/I put on those basses. Those are Shaller and they are also Upside Down. The screw hole goes on the bottom, not th top.
We were using Gears made by Gotoh for several years before I produced this model. if you look at the end of the fingerboard and on the label, you will see the serial number. It will be 2xx, made in 1985-87 or so. The date is on the label as well. Wait, let me think.... Ok, your serial number is ... 268 and made in 1987. The date is in the back plate. I don't have date records from that far back. Also, you need TCRM strings to sound its best. Be good to your bass! :) |
hi Ken, thank you for the informations !
This bass is unchanged till it has been purchased ... guess it was an old stock of machine head when you built this wonderfull BT4 :) (date 9/19/86) Here the serial number : 86 268 at the end of the fingerboard https://farm9.staticflickr.com/8568/...d29d44e6_b.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/153.../p1110860r.jpg |
Ebay purchase--1995 5G in lacewood and mahogany
Saw this on Ebay for $1700 BIN, got a good credit offer, and pulled the trigger. It very much needs a setup and came from a smoker. None of that matters: it's incredible. Very light, and that neck heel--oh my God. I've really liked my 1995 CR-5, but this is a whole lot more bass. Any tips on getting rid of cigarette odor?

This is my Ken Smith, I have other basses as Sadowsky, Fodera, Fender, Music Man, and are very good instruments, but the "Smith" has a plus !!! I can not explain exactly what I mean, but this low is unique, has a different mechanical, it is more enjoyable to play, I can make things easier with him than with the other basses, and the timbre is the highlight ... wonderful, not lump together with kick drums, very definite notes, just fantastic !!!! Congratulations mister Ken, you reinvented the way to build an electric bass !!! Thank you for being born.
