it has arrived !!!

[Allan Todd]

After two weeks waiting my bt6 black tiger is here
I used it live for the first time last friday night & it caused quite a stir, i had musicians from another band that was watching us asking what's that bass you're using, i dont't think anyones ever seen a smith bass over here on the isle of wight in england,
Our sound engineer loved it & said it produces the best slap sound he has ever heard & i agree (how do you do it ken??

Please excuse the live shot, i don't think our camera could handle the lights.

Very nice!! You have an awesome instrument there my friend!

[Allan Todd]

Cheers Bob, I've never known a bass to have such presence in the mix, i play in a funky rock band that are quite loud & this smith cuts through everything with such clarity it's scary, i never thought i would find a match for my warwick but this thing kicks major ass

Welcome to club. It won't be long before you looking for another Ken Smith. It's just something about them.

I totally agree with your observations about cutting through the mix. Smith's seem to always cut though; the EQ points in the bass I believe.

I had owned my 6 string since 1993. I believe it sounds better today than when I purchased it - or maybe I am better player .

Updated the forum on your gigs with your new "wooden woman". Don't pull the G string... just snap it!

[Allan Todd]

Thank you for the welcome Chris,
I would love another one but i think my girlfriend explode if another bass showed up here,

Nice playing on the youtube thing by the way, nice seven string too

Now i just need a good enough excuse to persuade my girlfriend that i need a seven string smith

[Jason Mendelson]

Enjoy it! thing is beautiful!
