I also play Metal and Rock on my Smith. In fact, been playin heavy music for a long time, and first time I heard a Smith thought it would be perfect. The wide low end is perfect for adding a little drive without thinning your tone, and the mid force and top end clarity keep me in the mix. Bout ten years after hearing a Smith, got one of my own. It's held up exactly as I thought, and made a believer out of my bands' members. I play fretless a ton as well, and as soon as I can get funds up, having a Smith fretless made like my current bass. I'll play anythin, anywhere, any time. But if have a choice, play my Smith. Every time.
