What year?: 1993.

So 1993, thanks. Here is a picture and is $750 including case well invested for the bass like this. Also what kind of sound could I expect from the bass like this? What Ken Smith Strings would you suggest for Funk-Rock-Pop playing? Thanks for such a quick and acurate help!

As far as sound? I think you'll find you can shape the tone to your liking. First and foremost, make sure the bass is professionally set-up for YOU; your playing style. The pre-amp EQ on this bass includes Treble and Bass Tone Controls, so, while you are lacking the Mid Control from the bass pre-amp, you can shape/add Mids with your amplification EQ Controls. Either way, for the $'s, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

As far as strings, I would highly recommend Smith Medium Taper Cores. If you cannot locate them locally, you can contact Ken directly and order from him.

Nice bass! Enjoy!

TCRM-5's would be correct.
