Of course, I'm certainly no expert (yet) on Ken Smith basses; however, my BSR5MW Cocobolo top and back beauty with its Tiger Maple core sounds, in a word...great!!! It may not have a "neck-thru" sound or sophistication, but..."entry-level?" I think not!!
I think some other adjectives may be more appropriate!

Ronson, I'm sorry, where did you see the words "
entry-level" written in my post, or any of my posts for that matter?
The $'s you spend are relative to the model purchased.
One day when you spend a few more $'s on a neck-thru (
and I suspect you will......
remember, I'm first in line in your Will......), you will better understand where I am coming from.
In the mean-time, enjoy what you have (as I'm
sure you will...
) because
$ for
$ there's
nothing better on the market!
