Ken Smith Burner 5 £2000 Glasgow

[Me And My Bass]

Selling my stunning Japanese Ken Smith Burner 5! Bought from Bassbro’s but has sat unused since, to scared to take it out giging!

 

It is nice and light too which is very noticeable on this one - 3.6kg. For its age the bass is in great condition for its age with only some minor marks in the finish and 1 small ding on the back of the body, other than this it is in excellent shape for its age. Included is the original gigbag.

 

These are pretty rare basses - £2000. Bass is in Glasgow, happy to post at buyers cost.

I have a Burner 4 and it's fabulous, my Japanese Smith is easily comparable to my recently acquired US Smith, and also light too, GLWTS
