  1. 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
  2. Now reduced to £4500. A genuine US Ken Smith for the same price as a Japanese Hadrien Feraud!
  3. lots of great bass lines. ‘Nard special on this
  4. Photo of control panel as requested
  5. 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.
  6. 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
  7. 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
  8. 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
  9. 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.
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. Hi, does anyone have a accurate transcription / tab of Stevie's moog bass line? Everything I've seen online is pretty basic. Thanks
  13. 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.
  14. Hi, any recommendations? Budget £200 max Got to be simple to use, straight out the box. Thanks
  15. Thank you Its pretty impressive playing and pitch control
  16. Yes, I know that but how is it played?
  17. hi, working out the synth bass to this great track. how do you get the pitch bend slur sound about 15 seconds in? Can’t work out how it is played thanks
  18. Update: my wife has told me to keep it as she thinks it is too pretty Hi, amazing BT5 for sale. Great condition. Comes with Rockbass gigbag and Ken Smith strap. Collection only from London More photos on request. No trades
  19. Personally 4 string is pointless😁 Left 4s behind many years ago
  20. ..and this guy from Foxy - its the new Rick Roll
  21. Louis Johnson also played it a few years later for Macca on the Broadway thing
  22. Ceramic pick ups were is use in the 90s before they switched back to Alnico. my SR5 is ceramic and sounds better (to me) than either of my 2eq or 3eq rays
