Very nice Ken Smith lookalike, made in Slovakia by Kamil Greben.

The bass has been made with a flamed maple neck through construction, with pretty walnut facings.
The pickups are hand built SBS electronic, and the 2eq preamp is made by MEC.

Stringspacing is 19mm.

The condition is very good. There are some small damages and blemishes, but the bass looks very clean overall. The neck is straight and the truss rod works. The frets are still good too. Playability is good with a low action.

It’s a very versatile and powerful bass. It has a nice warm growl with both pickups engaged, but can do plenty more.

Weight is 4,65kg on my kitchen scales.

Price €975 fixed. 

I am located in the Netherlands, but happy to ship at buyers risk.
