Default To be clear...

I use my Smith's, 6 and 7 string basses, for both finger-style and slap. In the youtube (Driven) clip in my signature area - I slap the 7 string bass 95%. So Smith basses can do both - and do them well.

I merely was stating that, in my opinion - Smith Basses excel at finger-style.

I am playing my 6 string now. Slapping, tapping etc;. When I play fingerstyle - it's another level for me, personally. Other basses can get close, but not the same as Smith is - for me. It just feels good an sounds so clear.

Everyone should "buy" a new Smith and compare for yourself

OK - that's my two cents...

Got a Match - John P. on bass.

Notice the favorable comments on this clip. It seems a lot people like the tone and feel of Smith basses.

Default Greetings Ken!

I have seen Mr. Davis go from 7-string to mini-moog I believe on Chaka Kahn's videos. What a great ambassador for Ken Smith basses. You are right too Ken, his hands are huge.
