    Fretless bass survey

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I have two fretless basses in my vast instrument collection which I don't have occasion to play that often, and usually just for my own pleasure, but I love them when I do!

    I own a 1982 Wal Mk1 and a 1989 Pedulla Buzz. Probably two of the finest brands and models of fretless ever made. That'll do me!

    Nice. Sounds great on your vid too, really cuts through with a lovely throaty lo-mid growl.

     

    Just so you know, those inlays on the neck are aftermarket stickers, but nicely done. There will be dots underneath them....

    Always preferred the full inlays myself so looks great!

    To be honest, the price of the basses should only matter to someone who is SERIOUSLY considering buying one. It is their call whether to indulge.

    Otherwise, all the opinions of people who were never gonna buy one anyway, no matter what the price (over £2k knocks most people out) is just noise....

    Trying to identify a Spector.

    Q4 has an EMG BTS circuit which is nice.

     

    As long as the condition is good/neck is straight etc I'd go with the Q4 and then possibly upgrade the EMG Hz pickups to full EMG soapbar P & J pickups to get closer to the classic Spector tone.

    Oh aye, she's observant too - some may know that I recently took in a second Thunderbird (different model though) and she was like "don't you have one like that already?"  I started to explain the differences, her eyes glazed over and that was the end of that conversation :D

     

    You can imagine that same conversation in my house every time a new Spector arrives! 🤣

     

    I've built up my 'goodwill' though by selling my Wal 18 months ago and using the proceeds to pay for an amazing 2 week all expenses paid trip to USA for My Wife, Son & I (Vegas, Grand Canyon, Mustang Convertible drive to San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Monterrey via Yosemite etc) last year ;)
