For sale Ken Smith BT Elite 2025

Selling my mint condition 2025 Ken Smith Black Tiger Elite. I bought 2 of these brand new direct from the man himself (Mr Ken Smith) in January of this year (2025). One was going to be a backup (the one I’m selling) and hasn’t left my house or been played much either. It’s literally like brand new. I ended up trading a Fodera Monarch Deluxe for another older 2008 Ken Smith model. Also, just received a custom Roscoe Century build I’ve been waiting for over a year. So I feel like having the “extra” Smith just isn’t serving me well so it’s up for sale. It goes without saying it plays and sounds like what you’d expect from a Smith, pure tonal heaven. Here’s a video demo of the bass . I used Moises to pull out the original bass track so you’re hearing 100% of the Smith. Also, as the song fades out at the end, I continue playing so you can hear the Smith in isolation. Headphones highly recommended.
