    Hi, where can we see the Bass Direct Ken Smith video?

    Had a Killer B, 5 string bolt on version of the Basic. String spacing is fixed at 17.5mm.

    I bought a status neck 20 years ago for my SR4 but went back to original neck after a few years as the graphite while amazingly made, sounded a bit clackity. Wanted to love it but unfortunately no luck

    Ok, let me know when you plan to sell 😁

    Don’t blame you. Still got a 1995 red SR5 I’ve had for 15 years. Did you buy the purple Lakland that was on sale here bitd?
  6. obi 2 kenobi
    Very nice. How many SR5s do you have? Notice any difference?

    Switched to 5 after 20 years on 4s. Would never go back. The range, low notes and ease of changing key is a no-brainer. Have one 4 string left, a late 80s stingray where sadly the controls have become stiff through non-use.

    Hi, Mark purchased my Ken Smith BT6. Top bloke. Super easy transaction. Highly recommended. Mark, hope you enjoy the bass. It's pretty special. Glad it has gone to a great home. Cheers Ken

    Hi, Ken Smith BT6 from 1991 for sale. Collection only from London. No trades. Sold with Ken Smith strap, Ken's secret sauce and Rockbass gigbag. I am the second owner. Had it for around 10 years. Ebony fingerboard. Macasser Ebony top, Walnut back and core. Bought and sold here several times. Feedback in usual place The Good Bass plays brillantly. Very low action. Amazing even defined tone across all notes, like a grand piano. Great B string. 2 band circuit was replaced, was a Warwick one when I got it, with a new Ken Smith circuit & knobs about 2 years ago, direct from Ken himself. Sounds great and very quiet. Truss rod also replaced at the Bass Gallery. Was broken when I got it. Neck is very stable. Trussrod only been tweaked half a dozen times over 10 years. The Bad Heavy. 5.2kg - see photo Has some wear, notably on back of neck. See photos. Has hairline crack next to B tuner. Not structural. Will be sad to see it go but I rarely use the C string. More photos on request.

    Got into them around freakee stylee. Love uplift album. Saw them in Glasgow on mother’s milk tour. Great gig. Got BSSM but nothing since as, forgive me, there is less energy & excitement in their music, imo

    That’s really cool. The stage album and that whole band with Belew was amazing. Did you find out why he seemingly stopped playing after Bowie and kind of disappeared? Last album I have with him on it, is a Jerry Harrison solo album from 1981. Still got it on vinyl

    If it's any consolation, when I finally got a Series 1 Point, I found it too heavy, too unwieldy, and a real stretch to low F. I barely had it a year. Snap! sold mine after 6 months. No regrets. Replaced by a Ken Smith which got the ergonomics right
  19. obi 2 kenobi
    Had a 5 string Essence bought and sold here. Amazing build quality but poor balance & ergonomics. Having the bridge so far towards neck with a small body made the reach to 1st fret even while sitting an effort.

    Also check out Steve Khan. Saw him live with Anthony Jackson and Steve Gadd at the New Morning. Steve Gadd had his kit at side of stage facing the band. He was amazing. Everyone was watching him

    Hi, had a pre-EB years ago. Still have a 3eq. Considering getting a cheap 2eq to remind myself of the 2eq sound. Will the Sterling R4 deliver? Or is quality and tone poor vs my EB 3eq? thanks

    Hi, does anyone have a accurate transcription / tab of Stevie's moog bass line? Everything I've seen online is pretty basic. Thanks

    Hi, I also have a little phatty which I mainly use for bass. Not sure how to upload new patches either. However, if you check Matt Johnson and also Csmcrckrs you tube, they both have vids with bass patches for minimoog which work really well. Also check Moog forum too.
