Any help would be appreciated, I just had surgery on my foot and will be bored out of my mind for 4-6wks. Been workin a lot and haven't had time to figuring it out. Thx bruh! btw, I love your Smith, I have a BT5.

Not a video for the bass purist. Nice bass line in the back. Might as well play a guitar. James Jamerson will be rolling in his grave

[hydrophobic666]

it's just AWESOME 

[alexfunkii34]

EXCELLENTTTTTEEEEE

[karakatsa]

you record your bass straight through your computer?

i have a mac and i would like to record my bass through it but i don't know how

any tips?

thanks

[nephilymbass]

nice but I still can't get the high C. My 5 has 26 fretts and the g string sounds better playin the same note in a higher position than any 6 I've played

[xxxthebassmanxxx]

@nephilymbass First of all thats a stupid comment, becouse you can get more notes out of a 6 string bass, second ofcourse the notes that are the same will sound better on a thicker string. third, I dont see any video of you playing a bass at all. And just as an extra, I doubt you have ever played a Smith bass...

[kineticx]

@xxxthebassmanxxx You right, and rude as well!!

I dont like your attitude dude!!

but I love your bass haha!!

I currently have a Marcus Miller 5 string, I'm going for a Smith just like yours!! I'm in love with that unique sound!! Nice playing by the way!!

[esraretin]

@xxxthebassmanxxx E min7 u wrote .do i have to learn wht these scales mean ?

[tsiggy]

@nephilymbass G string, ha?

[aaron1200123]

more like smooth jazz?? but nice vid though

[djridoo2]

OMFG, i like it!

great sound and feeling....

it's possible to have the backing track?

[thecheekybec]

just wondering what woods that ken smith has sounds amazing

[xxxthebassmanxxx]

@thecheekybec well, its walnut core, maple neck, mahogany laminates, amd avodire top, thanks!

[thecheekybec]

hey just wondering what wood combo that ken smith has sounds amazing

[cornflakesnwater]

jammin..!!!!

[OehlJohannes]

Very nice playing, and a cool bass!

[Aspartamebraintumor]

It's alright.

[76alembic]

I have a old BT6 G with a eboney top {1990} sounds much different than the BSR 6EG.Very nice playing man.Smmth jazz is a great vehicle for that smith man.

[terrykumar]

I love it. Could you upload the backing track for me? I'd like to have a go with it. Thank you.

[hendrixfreek]

thats a sweet groove and solo man.. nice nice chops!!!!

[serjg22081982]

is particularly beautiful music

[Bygde]

KS basses have an awesome tone!

[SergioGonzalez05]

wow!!! te amo!

[leston4life]

Keep going man!! That was good, except that the clip is too short. The music stopped when I started getting into it. Just make sure you have a signature sound that within a few notes, people would recognize that you are the one playing. That's the secret to success, I think---the uniqueness. And you definitely have the talent to make it work, man.

[xxxthebassmanxxx]

thanks fir the nice comment!! best

[jazzmybass]

@leston4life haha.. and marcus miller doesn't get the credit for that quote about the few notes???

[everlessmusic]

@leston4life i actually think secret for succes is creativity and the ability to play diferent types of music. . .since each one of us has a different style (not that any style is better than the other) people are obviously gonna recognize you even though you dont even work on that aspect

[Kenkerpoepie]

what bass does he use?

[xxxthebassmanxxx]

I am using a ken Smith bass BSR6EG...

[thecheekybec]

@xxxthebassmanxxx what wood combo does that BSR6EG have sounds amazing
