Default 1989 Ken Smith BT5EG

Hi guys,

I'm new at the forum.
I'm a young belgian bassplayer and this is my 1989 Ken Smith BT5EG with Morado top, Walnut back, Mahogany core and ebony fretboard.

I love this bass, I wanted one ever since i saw my teacher's BT6EG.
It plays great, and sounds great.
There's just a little problem with the electronics, it's playable but i get this hum when i play passive (so i don't ) but all this should be sorted out when i buy a new electronics retrofit from Ken Smith.

(sorry for the greasy fingers! i took these pictures after playing for a while)
