Excellent Bass, bought from Bass Direct and gigged quite a lot, always kept in the case. Am not using it anymore and need to move it on. Beautiful finish, a couple of cracks in the gloss which I have highlighted, otherwise in really good condition. Includes original case (one of the latches is broken) and metal pickup and bridge covers. All original except for the screw in the strap button. Weight 4.2 kilos If you are genuinely interested and need any more pics let me know.

Still available - an excellent working bass.

German double bass probably made in the 70’s in East Germany. Great gigging bass, have used it a lot with a realist pickup (not included), stays in tune and amplifies well. Had a neck repair at some point but still plays beautifully and totally stable. Just been set up by luthier with d’addario helicore strings. Really good condition and comes with a soft case.

What is the wood on this? Can you describe it please- I have the same bass, which is an amazing instrument, but not sure if it’s walnut. Thanks, that is on hell of a bass. GLWTS

excellent cabs these

PM’d

Great Cab which I have used a lot in all kinds of gigs. Loud, punchy and only 16kg. 4x6 inch speakers - do the maths, it the equivalent of 2x12. Not sure about the tweeter......Very cool...

Might be interested in Roscoe 4 string

Up it goes- offers considered.

Thank you.

18mm string spacing at bridge, ebonu fingerboard, for more info I would have to write to Ken Smith as there seems to be very little information re this model.

thanks....Still waiting for a straight sale....

Ken Smith Through Neck 5MS in really good condition, a couple of marks here and there but nothing serious. No issues with this bass, it plays beautifully with a really low action. I just prefer my 6 string Ken Smith when I need a low B. Case is in immaculate condition and comes with Ken Smith Strap. It needs a good home, its a wonderful bass made of really dense wood but weighs only 4.5 kilos. Its magnificent.

Not for sale anymore, pls withdraw

Welcome to come and try it out.

As far as I can tell: this is a 3 piece neck, not 5 piece, and the hardware is chrome. Apart from that, I can’t see much difference.

4.5 kilos , doesn’t feel that heavy though, and I’m an old timer.

Thanks for the correction, 5MS it is.

Amazingly Beautiful 5 String Ken Smith bass, sounds as good as you would expect. Very comfortable to play with great definition and even tone across the neck. Bought this just before the first lockdown for a tour that got cancelled and then cancelled again a year later. I prefer my Ken Smith 6 string so I'm not using this. Has a few very small dings, not really noticeable and the case is immaculate. Such a wonderful dense wood consistency, but not really that heavy. A joy to play.

Great, portable cab, not too heavy and suitable for just about any gig. How do I know? I have one and use it regularly.

Up it goes again, still here at bargain price.

Think it’s about 4 years old, got it second hand but have hardly been able to use it because of COVID
