Ken Smith 2nd prototype for Anthony Jackson

[JonPaulsen]

I was just browsing Reverb when this bass caught my attention:

It is advertised as a Ken Smith Anthony Jackson Prototype No 2.

Here is a photo:


Is this one of the few Jackson prototypes you built, Ken? I've seen one similar one earlier, but I've never seen that lower horn swing the wrong way before. Very interesting, I guess this is a piece of bass history.

Do you have any more information for us about this bass, Ken?

Seems it's sporting 28 or 29 frets, strange pickup positions (with regards to the more usual pickup positions), as well as a huge headstock... this must be a poorly balanced bass? :-)
