I wouldn't modify the electronics of a Smith, period, no matter how old it was, unless it was a Ken Smith-sanctioned & approved modification (now, admittedly this is from a man who waited almost 11 years to own a Ken Smith!). Even if he sanctioned a mod, I'd want him to do it.

Nope. I'd leave a Smith -a Smith. If I want another sound, I'll just buy whatever axe it is that makes that sound. I wanted a Smith because I so desparately wanted the "Smith" sound.

That's my two cents, and thanks for listening!

Couldn't have said it better.
