Description & Condition
Description & Condition
Ken Smith, headquartered in Pennsylvania, USA, is a renowned brand known for producing high-end electric basses.
They are considered pioneers of modern bass design, having developed the world's first six-string bass and designed tapercore strings.
The instrument featured today is the JB model, manufactured in Japan under the KSD brand.
The neck and fingerboard are made of wood sourced from Ken Smith.
The body is made of alder and the fingerboard is made of ebony, creating a classic combination.
The preamp is a Nordstrand 3B, the pickups are original, and the tuner is a Hipshot Ultralite.
The sound signature is relatively mild, yet rich with a prominent midrange.
This is the opposite of typical setups that emphasize low and high tones and slash mids.
The clear, pleasant tone opens up new possibilities for jazz bass.
This instrument is particularly recommended for studio session players.
The frets have approximately 70 percent wear remaining. The truss rod is in good condition.
Neck condition: Good.
Body condition: Some dents and scratches.
Electronics condition: No issues.
Repair/replacement status: The volume knob is a push-pull type with active/passive switching, and the pickups have a series/parallel switch. It also appears that the middle tone control has been replaced with a stacked knob.
