[size=5][b]Ken Smith Elite 5 20th Anniversary Flamed Redwood Top[/b][/size] - SOLD Specs: Flamed Redwood Top Tiger Maple Core Macassar Ebony board 34 scale 18 mm spacing Gold Hardware Birth Year: 1999 The 20th Anniversary basses are highly sought after in the market. Not only because Ken does not offer Redwood tops anymore, but also for their specific sound and collectibility. Redwood is known as a premium tonewood for guitar tops. Please see Ken's page for the history of these basses. Only 25 5-strings had been built with this spec. [url="http://www.kensmithbasses.com/models/anniversary/anniversary.html"]http://www.kensmithb...nniversary.html[/url] This bass has been played a lot yet well cared for. Some dings and dongs all over the body but nothing major. The sound of this particular bass is very responsive and organic. Smiths are always cutting in the mix. I have owned more than 20 Smith Neckthroughs in the past and this is one of the 4-5 best ones. Comes with Original Hardcase. Bass is located in Germany / 40547 Duesseldorf. SOLD

Wow ! Another breathtaking bass from Ari ! Good luck with the sale - although I believe you don't need it. This bass will be sold in hours I guess ...

[quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1354874571' post='1891403'] 34' scale length; might be a bit of a stretch for me. 'tis a beauty though. [/quote] Really ? "It's all in your hands" (today mostly unknown bass player) I thought double quotes are for double basses only OK, let's say 34" ... we in Germany are usually not well experienced in UK units, not to say I'm a bit sloppy using them ... mea culpa ! Thanks anyway for posting

This bass is still for sale. Open for some trades (even with cash your way): F Bass Fretless Celinder J Update 5 Ken Smith Elite Fodera (no NYC)

I received this bass in a trade and never spent more than a few minutes with it - until today. This bass is really rockin' and a slapper's delight ! I used to own a Series 2 Alembic and that bass sounded a little bit "electric" for me. The Rogue has a different timbre. More towards a Celinder with a quick response and a midrange that cuts in the mix. No glassy highs or boomy lows. Players who love a more chunky Preci-like neck but with a modern Celinder-like sound should give this a try. The Rogue plays comfortable and hangs balanced on the strap. And it weighs 4.2 kg ! Open for offers.

Thanks to all of you :-))) I forgot to mention the scale: It is a comfortable 34' !!

I'm selling my Alembic Rogue 5 with a wonderful Birdseye Maple top. This bass is stunning in sound and look ! Born in '97 it was very well cared for until today so it is still in great shape. There is a small scratch on the back and some minor hair scratches on the the lower side of the body. Very very small fading on the parts of the bridge - you won't notice it without a closer look. Everything else is like new - the brass parts, the finish, the frets, the knobs, the OHSC ... It provides a huge B especially with the bass switch turned to boost. The bass weighs freaking low 4.2 kg ! I have never touched a full scale Alembic with less weight ! The pics are shown as shot with the Canon lens without any changes. Bass comes with original hardcase, nothing else. I'm asking 2.500 Euro firm for it plus shipping. Bass comes from 40547 Duesseldorf / Germany. No trades at the moment. More (and high res) pics on request.

Bump for a breathtaking bass from one of the widely recognized connoisseurs and trustworthy sellers in the bass world. Good luck Ari. I really have to fight my demons to not buy it in a heartbeat ... But I'm sure this will not last long.

SOLD .... Pending payment ...

[quote name='MrT-Bass' timestamp='1342527934' post='1736563'] Bump for a beautiful bass!! What is the string spacing on this one? Do you have any sound samples? [/quote] The string spacing is 19 mm currently - it is configurable between about 18,5 and 20 mm. Actually no samples. I'll try to record some in the next days but not sure whether I find some minutes for that.
