Sooo.
The last couple of Smiths that I owned didn't really "spoke" to me. I couldn't get a live sound that I liked but they sounded nice. I ended up selling or trading them.

Last Saturday I received this Smith:

And wow, this is really the best Smith I've owned, it's very versatile, low action and looks beautiful. I did a series/parallel switch test in case anyone cares :p

 
Smith (flat) to a Korg Pandora PX4B, the eq is flat in the Pandora as well. I use one of those headphone splitters and run one line for my headphones and one line for the mic input jack on my camera (Canon Vixia HFR10). Nothing hard or fancy and no editing.

Danny what is your recording chain? I have a Smith with same specs and is a wonderful instrument. Smith's new preamp kicks but.
