Hi all,
I have actually had some dummass say to me; "hey dude, nice Carvin" at which time I told him that he was mistaken. I informed him that the bass was really a "Sears", couldn't he plainly see the big "S"? Gotta love a wiseass!! Later, Kirk |

Hey Roy
The Cocobolo/Walnut MD7 is a 2001, 9 volt pre-amp and Ebony/Tiger Maple is 2011, 18 volt pre-amp that I just received. Two very different instruments for tone, there is nothing similar in the way that they sound. The Ebony to my ear is really brilliant across the tonal spectrum with lots of punch. The Cocobolo is very smooth and deep on the low end with crystal like highs, mids are very complex which I roll off quite a bit. The Maple/Mahogany that I just sold had a very classic Smith sound that was warm and punchy with strong mids that Smiths are known for and sat well within the mix when playing live. I am probably giving you more information than you need but I really enjoy these instruments and thought this might be info that you are others could use if looking at something similar in a Smith bass.

Hey Hiroshi!
Beautiful basses. Anxiously awaiting the arrival of my first Smith bass. The woodworking is so impressive. |

Thank you.Steven.
It is arrival pleasure of the first base. Woodwork is very wonderful and the accuracy of a neck is also the highest. Although Japan is humid, for the moment, it has not curved. Please enjoy Ken Smith LIFE. |

Looks very much like mine!
That bass you just got looks almost identical to mine. I'm curious if they're twin's, built around the same time.

Series/Parallel Switches......
Quote:
Hi Rory! I was watching your Smiths, they are really beautiful basses, but seeing the setup of your series/parallel switches I noticed you use the neck pickup in series (switch up) and the bridge pickup in parallel (switch down), and see that configuration in both of your basses; so my question is, why you like this setup? I ask because I have had this doubt for some time and also because I have noticed that other Smith players use that configuration too. Thanks for sharing! |
