The Story

BT6 6-String Bass 1990

This beauty of a bass is a pre-owned 1989 Ken Smith set-neck BT6 model, built in the early era of Ken Smith basses, this one from 1990. The bass has a maple and mahogany sandwich body with a 5-piece maple neck, 24 frets, a 2.12" nut width, two humbucker pickups and gold hardware. This bass has the older headstock style with 3-Band EQ and a 9V pre-amp, it's in very good condition with the hardshell case included. There were some cracks in the fretboard that were professionally filled in with epoxy, and the work looks like it was well done, with no cracks spreading any further.

Includes: Original Hardshell Case
