BigRedX Posted February 7, 2008 Share Posted February 7, 2008 For those of you who missed the thread last time this bass was discussed it's from [url="http://www.mikeyguitar.com/index.asp"]Mikey Guitar[/url]. An interesting idea but I can't help thinking that the fretless conversion works the wrong way round. Instead of lowering the frets it should really raise the fingerboard otherwise the fretless action will be too high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What might be feasible is to have cams to raise and lower the bridge and nut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
