Rob Roy

Thank you BCrs for all your inputs! @bluejay, yeah you're absolutely right!, I'll plan a visit to Emporio Musicale (yes it still exisits) and maybe to another fairly big shop while on the way to beautiful Siena (worth a visit anyway...) @rumple, a Wal fretless would be fantastic, but maybe a little over my budget, I was thinking rather about a second hand Pedulla 4 Buzz. Didn't know about [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]ACG filter based eq. basses, thanks. I'll search the web for this![/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]@skelf, fantastic video! yeah this sort of things..[u].EDIT: just realised that YOU are the builder of ACG basses. OMG! Beautiful pieces of art![/u] [/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]have a nice day[/font][/color]

Thanks for the feedback, I'll have a look at that.

Hello everybody, my name is Roberto, I'm from Italy and I'm 51 years old. I'm an amateaur bass player now but I've been playing in local bands since I was a teenager, mostly post-punk/alternative and most recently in a experimental-electronica band. I've stumbled into this great forum while trying to track down a fretless bass. I've always been a great admirer of Mick Karn (sadly missed!) since Japan's early years on, but at the time didn't want to sound like I was trying to blatantly copy him (...if you know what I mean...) so I never went for a fretless. I had actually defretted a very cheap Pbass clone, just to give it a go, but results were...not so good. Fast forward and nowadays I'm an happy amateurish weekend player, and feel that the time is right for a proper Fretless Bass, and the search continues that's it really...just wanted to greet the community (please excuse my english, it's not my language) Cheers Roberto P.S. should anyone have a suggestion for a good instrument that could be worth considering, please advise. It'd be much appeciated
