Nik bought some machineheads off me. The usual easy, smooth transaction along with great comms. Cheers John

To echo @Mykesbass so sorry to hear this. Also sounds like good advice regarding keeping the bass to help with focus, and “future” thinking. Best wishes. John

Best basslines for a FRETLESS beginner?
oldslapper replied to Zoe_BillySheehan's topic in General Discussion
Congratulations on your new bass! And welcome to the wonderful world of fretless 😎 In addition to the above advice, maybe have some fun practicing playing familiar patterns/riffs/songs without looking at the fretboard too much. Great way of training your ears, hearing intonation, and not as scary as it seems. -
Fender Precision, sunburst/tort/rosewood, Jap

Looks like it’s unfinished -

Mine was victim to the cull too. 😳 I’ve tried to introduce a new one from my photos, but it’s only changed the big picture on my profile, but not the little circley avatar. Any clues what I’m doing wrong?

I’ve just asked swmbo to read this thread. I thought it might help if she saw she wasn’t alone. Then I realised she wasn’t alone, otherwise I couldn’t have asked her to read the thread.

SOLD Trade fell through, now I need to sell so no trades 🙄 To get things moving I’m throwing in for free an Encore limited edition P with Warman pickup, so you’ll be getting twins!! Surprisingly nice bass, set up with low action and flats. It has the same “Finder decision bass” logo as fretless but not lacquered on, so looks a bit grubby. Photo off internet as I’m at work, but same as this but with logo as described. Bitsa Unlined Fretless P bass. Unknown Body bought off Beedster of this here parish. Unknown unlined Fretless neck bought off eBay Warman pups Schaller large plate machine heads Brass saddle bridge New jack socket. Has a cheeky “Finder decision bass” logo, lacquered over. Nice bass if you want to have a pop at fretless without breaking the bank (I’ve gigged with it) One issue to point out is there must be a tiny hump round about where 5th fret would be on the A string which means the note can “choke” or “buzz” if pressed too lightly. It’s slightly above D note, so it didn’t bother me. It doesn’t happen anywhere else on the board or any other string. But thought I’d point it out. Probably something that could be sanded out. So 2 Ps for £250 No case with either so it’s collection only, or meet up within reasonable distance of Bath/Bristol Any questions feel free to ask.
