Show your Smith bass!

[Albert Smith]

Here's a shot of my treasures, it took me a little while to collect them, but well worth the wait. I have a CR4MW 4 string, a
BT EG 5 string and my latest addition that's currently being repaired by Ken Smith a CR6 6 string all different woods from Tiger Maple to Walnut. They are all great basses and serve me well. I currently play for The MT. Carmel Baptist Church Sanctuary Choir, The Associated Praise Team and a youth group by the name of Unified Souls.

Are you sure that's a BSR5EG? It looks like a BT5EG to me..

Beautiful basses!

Well, I think that is something we can do. You also must understand how we slot the fingerboards which is the same for fretted or lined fretless. The accuracy must be 100% with no guess work in the spacing. This is our slotting machine here that we made years ago.



I guess we could modify the Jig to cut only the sides like your photo suggests.

A lot of people seem to like those side markers. I personally like the lined look though.

Here's the lined look;

Should have used my own bass to demonstrate!
