| "NEW" Smith BMT 18 volt Circuit
(5 knob)
This Circuit is Standard in all Handmade USA Smith Basses since 2005 |
|
The New Smith BMT 18 volt Circuit was designed for Multi venue application. The 9 volt BT Circuit has been in use since 1981, and the BMT Circuit from 1993 to *2011. Since that time there has not been a single musician, studio or touring, who has called about a lack of headroom in the Circuit. Although the 18 volt Circuit does provide more headroom, it would take an extreme case where the Bass is overly boosted and played overly hard for it to peak over 9 volt range. For this reason, within the design of our 2004 model we have included the 18 volt feature. Rest assured there is no difference in volume between the 9 & 18 volt units that we have tested. The 6 position DIP switches are preset at the factory for what we believe is the optimum performance frequency for the Smith Bass. *Note: If you have an older Smith Bass with Series/Parallel switches with the older 9v circuit, the 18v with 2 batteries will not fit. We can however 'custom modify' the New Circuit to operate with just one 9v battery and provide the same output of sound with the DIP switches intact. |

Control Knobs, Input Jack, Battery Holders and Series/Parallel Switches are Sold Separately |
