Russ, the American ones are reversible. 😉 -
I also owned this original 1970 Ampeg Dan Armstrong see-through fretless, pictured on the office floor in our previous home :
-
The other ones are here. That said, you should have a 6 strings fretless bass, that's way better. 🤣

Here is a selection in your price tag, Harry. I think the second one will attract you, don't know why 😁 : https://www.zikinf.com/annonces/dispannonce.php?annonce=1410363 https://www.zikinf.com/annonces/dispannonce.php?annonce=1581266 https://www.zikinf.com/annonces/dispannonce.php?annonce=1617055 https://www.zikinf.com/annonces/dispannonce.php?annonce=1613816

Or this beauty, as I already owned 2 Delta Metal fretless Vigier, the LeFay Remington Steele, but with 6 strings :

Yes @TrevorR, I know the place in Vosselaar, it's the Belgian metal church. I've seen one or two or maybe three concerts there in the late 90's early 2000's. I know the owner is called Bob, but I have no idea what the Bie means... That said it's because of Randy Coven and loop listening of "Funk me tender" that I had a beautiful Kramer DMZ 4001 slaughtered to receive a Kahler bass tremolo... In fact it wasn't slaughtered at all as the job had been wonderfully done by the greatest French luthier Christophe LEDUC.

Well done.

The B-Quad and the MidiBase are real rarities too. Brian Bromberg and Alain caron wouldn't say the opposite. 😉

Thanks for the compliment, but there is no opposition in the terms I used in my sentence, nor anything inconceivable. Or maybe, is it just the thread title itself that you consider an oxymoron.

Traded some light items for a heavy bulky one from Armando. Every aspect of this trade was a pleasure, Armando being a very kind man. I almost received that big heavy box before he shipped it from deep South of Italy to deep South of Belgium. The Monster Cookie was very well packed and as described. Another credit to BassChat. Don't over abuse of the sound of the bells, Armando (private joke 🤣 )

To me, yes. But that's up to the OP.
-
I read my sentence again and think it's been misinterpreted. I should have added : "than the one you mentioned" to "player".

I'm basically a fretless only player and have been for at least 2 decades a fretless only player, so I'm interested in fretless whatever style it is. And I'm no fretted bass player, I even can say that I'm not liking playing fretted instruments. I listen to any kind of music as long as it's music, and metal is music. It's not an odd position at all, but to me, the only fretless player in metal is Steve Di Giorgio who is almost unknown outside the metal nor fretless world. His playing is, to me, hallucinating, but burried in the mix, very strange for the guy who almost invented the death metal genre !?! Playing fretless on a tune or two doesn't make you a fretless player as, most of the time, you are playing just what you played on a fretted bass on a fretless. In your list, you can add Svante HENRYSON who is basically a fretless player, but played fretted bass because of the music he was in. He is also a terrific double bass player. And what about Jack BRUCE who has been playing fretless metal bass even before the genre was ever named...
-
That's way I wrote hard rock and not metal, Harry.
-
There are not other full time fretless bass player in metal, except Tony FRANKLIN who has been playing in some hard rock bands... Loop the loop.
-
I think that you loop the loop. 😕

Like this BassLab for sale in France for years :
-
So, is it yours now ? I must admit that I was also blown away by that fretless at the time. 😉
-
Those Tokai Talbo are gorgeous, being original or reissue. 👍
-
You are right, I should have remembered this. 🧞♂️
-
I don't think so, it's in Spain nowadays, but let me check at Bass Direct. Checked and found a 5 strings version in 36" scale : http://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/OW_Progress_5.html Is it the one you are talking about ?

This is the opening you can see in a cab, which is mostly circular, but can have any shape and can be anywhere or even everywhere. The Promethean just above is a front loaded bass reflex construction, as you can see below the speaker a rectangular opening. This opening permits to lower the size while still having the same amount of bass (theoretically as you will notice a difference in the sound reproduction).
