If this was a 4 i'd be a dead man! It's so pretty.
doki Posted October 19, 2010 Author Posted October 19, 2010 thanx guys... the 4 strings are pretty rare as the smiths are well known for their b-string and 6ers... incredible instruments but i can`t use them in my current projects: i think i had to fear for my life standing with the smith in a dusty club with a hundred drunk punk rockers in the crowd throwing bottles at me .. anyways i will miss it for sure, as it is a fantastic studio and solo bass as well :.( trade option removed

mattbass6 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 What a beautiful bass. I have always wanted a KS. Just wish I had the money to buy it. Good luck with the sale, this will make someone very happy I am sure

lee650 Posted October 20, 2010 Posted October 20, 2010 Id love to try a NT smith, this could be the one to make me want a six, its even got nice knobs retrofitted, the original ones dont do justice to stupidly expensive basses,(will change mine as soon as i can ) this is the bargain of the week by a long way, just stunning!!!! oh and your right the B string is fantastic!! better than the yamaha and warwick 5,s ive owned previously!!!
alemsmith Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Where is the Smith located in Germany, any chance to test it ? Best regards
doki Posted October 21, 2010 Author Posted October 21, 2010 thanx matbass6 and lee650... and yes i can`t understand either why US-Luthiers always equip their basses with the cheapest plastic knobs - those instruments need wood or gold or something fancy... ok since there is a lot of undecided interest via pm and the time is running as i really like to settle this before my holiday to have a free mind... time to get a bit more agressive Two Options: 1) lowered price to 1900 GBP / 2150 euro including shipment to any EU country... only until 20:00 this evening and buyer has to pay immediately - bass will be shipped Friday 22.10.2010 morning! or 2) you pay say 100 pounds /150 euro in advance and got time to pay the rest of the 2000 GBP / 2250 while i`m on vacation -> bass will be shipped Tuesday 02.11.2010 Bass will be withdrawn Thursday 21.10.2010 20:00 - but will be up again 02.11.2010 i`m really sorry about pushing it that hard, but i already paid for the bass i wanted to finance with this one and thats now missing on my bank account... when i`m back from holidays and she is still here and i got a bit distance to the situation things go back to normal and there will be plenty of time for all the undecided - promise
JTUK Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 I can't help as it is 6....but if this was a 5 it would have me thinking very hard. I always think Smiths should be a dark wood and this one works really well to my eye.
lozbass Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Lovely looking bass (and I'm not the greatest fan of Smith shapes!) Can you tell us more about the string spacing (nut and bridge) and the scale length?
doki Posted October 21, 2010 Author Posted October 21, 2010 bass is now sold! spacing is 9mm at the nut and 18mm at the bridge... scale is 34" if i remember right...
voxpop Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Oh F**k. I only had a few hours away from my computer and the bloody thing is sold.... Anyone else have a 6 string KS for sale?????????? To the person who bought it................ If you dont like it or want to sell it on PLEASE contact me.
mattbass6 Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 Didn't think this would be around for long. What an amazing bass
lee650 Posted October 21, 2010 Posted October 21, 2010 (edited) well well!!! so not surprised, if it were a 5 id have been doing some serious reshuffling!! congrats to the new owner!!!! Edited October 21, 2010 by lee650
