[quote name='ziggydolphinboy' timestamp='1325093291' post='1479793'] wood and tronics chronos 5? bump for a beutiful bass. [/quote] Thanks ziggy - The W&Ts are AMAZING basses - nevertheless I sold exactly that model a few months ago because I never became comfortable with it's look...

How did you find out that it's an ASH body ? If that's true, it MUST have been originally a See-Through Blonde finish - no exception ... A view into the neck pocket could be of some help...

Christmas bump

[quote name='warwickhunt' timestamp='1323730262' post='1466439'] I've never been a fan of the aesthetics of the Smith basses but your pics seem to have brought out the best in the bass, it looks really slim; do you have an accurate weight? [/quote] Thanks for all your kind comments This bass weighs 4kg on my digital bathroom scale. It feels very comfortable on the strap.

FS in Germany: [b][size=5]Ken Smith BMT Elite 4 [/size][/b] 1995, all-original, and in [b][size=5]MINT [/size][/b]condition !!! Specs: [list] [*]Highly Flamed Maple Top & Back [*]Mahogany body core [*]7pc body wings [*]7pc neck [*]Rosewood Board (or Pau Ferro ?) [*]Active BMT Preamp with Bass, Mid, Treble, Volume, Balance [*]Passive mode with Push-Pull-Volume-Pot [*]Satin Finish [*]34' scale [*]Hardcase - not original [/list] This particular model has been built during the years 1993 and 1997 and is quite similar to the today's top model - the Fusion Elite 25th Anniversary. The BMT does not have the parallel/serial switches and misses some of the aesthetical goodies like Abalone dots, but it is structurally the same. BMT necks have been treated in a special way, which is not offered as a standard anymore by KS. The neck runs through the body in full thickness, today's Smith necks must get a tone block added to match the body thickness. BMT necks are much thinner than the modern ones and they play unbelievable fast. The fretwork is perfect and the action so low without buzzes that the string is just before laying flat on the frets. The frets are in nearly unplayed condition. BMT necks had been stored and dried for several years before being used for a new bass. The sound has the typical Smith-Click in the upper registers with a strong medium range, cutting through EVERY mix. I don't know how much BMTs had been built through the 5 years. It is mentioned somewhere in the Web that it should be not more than 130-140 basses. And there were much less 4-stringers than 5- or 6-ers. So this is a very rare opportunity to get one - in perfect state. Smith lovers know that this model is one of the best (or probably IS the best) Smith models ever built. The bass has ZERO dings and scratches, nothing ! I'm asking [size=5][color=#0000ff][b]3.300 [/b][/color][/size][size=5][color=#0000ff][b]Euro[/b][/color] [/size]for it plus shipping. Bass is located in Duesseldorf, Germany. No trades., ... Pics on request:

Selling my beautiful Electro-Acoustical Takamine B10. It is the model with the DSP Preamp - without Tube. The bass looks great and is in MINT condition. Bass is located in Duesseldorf/Germany. Soundwise it is somewhere between fretless and double bass, with a unique timbre and feeling. It is playable like a guitar as well like an upright (with a spike installed). The string height is more towards a double bass and needs professional woodwork to be lowered, but it would be possible of course. You can hear some good examples at u-tube. The DSP preamp features an EQ and reverb (!!) with different characteristics - and programmable presets for all settings. That's an absolute killer thing ! Body: Jumbo with Cutaway Top: Sitka Spruce, arched Back and Sides: Flamed Sycamore Board: Ebony (with nice grain and thick !!) Preamp: DSP Finish: Antique Nutmeg Satin Scale 34' Without any position markers Included: Special Takamine Hardcase Adjustable and rempvable spike, so that it can be used as an upright bass One set brandnew Pyramid Gold Acoustic Bass Strings Tools and Candy Gift for local pick-ups: Adjustable double bass stand, which holds the bass securely even with the spike mounted Sold and shipped Pics here: [url="http://www.mrbassman.net/de/MrBassman/Basses/takamine_b10.htm"]http://www.mrbassman...akamine_b10.htm[/url]

Hi, I have one for sale, if that's what you are looking for ... PM me

Trades anyone ?

Just decided to part with my pre-Ernie Ball MusicMan Sabre Bass. It is from 1979, in 100% original state and very good condition, even the string mutes on the bridge are still there. The bass comes with the uber-rare original MusicMan Teardrop case. This model is the funky version of the StingRay, providing more versatility and a huge bass with its 2nd pickup. Read the enthusiastic review in the German "Gitarre&Bass" magazine from Sep 2011. Serial number, body and neck dates as well as pot codes are correct for 1979. More pics, detailed views, infos on request - shoot me a pm or email. Bass is sold. Thanks for looking.

Any trades ?

PM sent
