Their products are truly superb. Their products are truly superb and have attracted many bassists.
Although the BSR seems to be the most popular Ken Smith bass in recent years, the more classic model that has existed since the company's founding is the BT.
The BT is designed for optimum balance when played seated, and is known for its use by Anthony Jackson, Stanley Clarke, and John Patitucci.
This model is an old head version of the BT5.
It is quite clean for its age.
The body is composed of walnut, mahogany, and maple.
This beautiful walnut may seem obvious when looking at a Ken Smith, but it is something special that is usually rarely seen.
I believe the fingerboard is Perferro.
The neck is in really great condition and plays smooth.
The sound is also very Ken Smith-like, with clear yet beautiful overtones.
I think everyone who likes Ken Smith will like this guitar.
It's a great guitar.
The frets are about 80% full.
The truss rod is working and the neck is in good condition.
The body and paint are in good condition with some scratches, dings, and dull parts. Some picking marks are visible, but the overall condition is good considering the age.
No obvious modifications were found.
