"Taper Core MD7-Light String Set"
-20-28-40-58-80-102-120
Believe me
when I say that my Ken Smith Bass,
respectfully referred to as
"The MD-7 String Contrabass Guitar", along
with my other eight custom 4, 5, 6, and 7 string Smith basses have to
be some of the most well made, well played instruments I've ever owned.
The science of wood combinations, state-of-the-art electronics, and the
love and care that goes into the construction of every Ken Smith
Instrument is paramount to the beauty and sound of what I call, "The
Ken Smith Experience".

These strings are designed for high quality
instruments. They are bright, the sound is even across the fret board,
they are very consistent, and they last longer than most strings on the
market today. (Trust me, I've tried a lot of them.) I have found Ken's
products to be the best because like myself, Ken Smith is a bass player
who understands the needs for the instrument... and for me, that's very
important.
The
sets I choose to use:
"Taper Core Light 5 String Set"-
40-58-80-102-120
"Taper
Core Light Gospel
6
String Set"-
40-58-80-102-120-145
Tuned: G - D - A - E - B - F#

"IT has
no bells and whistles....IT does what IT says it will do!
IT is quiet...No hiss fits. You flip ITs power switch to the "on"
position and ask yourself....is IT really on?
IT moves the ground with deep bottom, thru all frequencies IT moves
with clarity.
IT has given me 3,600 reasons to revere IT's power and call IT's name!
IT's name.......THE NUKE BTX 36000! by Burgera. Hearing is believing!"
