Ken Smith is on a distinguished road
Lightbulb Lockey Hill

Anyone interested in seeing a beautiful old 'confirmed' Lockey Hill?

This one with narrower Ribs and Violin Corners c.1780. It also has an angled Back break up near the Neck. This Bass with a few exceptions looked so Italian I had to take a 2nd and 3rd closer look at the Head and Wood under the varnish to believe it was olde English.

I got permission from the owner to showcase it on my Website for display only. In case your are wondering, it is Not for Sale. The Bass is owned by a NY area professional freelance Bassist.
