So here's a clip of June last year with my fretless. I believe this was before I had Lollar pickups installed.

Had these before:

Ned Steinberger Design, very "upright-ish"...


Fernandes 60's Jazz Bass copy: VERY good! Like the real deal, this one...


I also had this: an old lined fretless Steinberger L2 I bought in Hamburg in early 1984. Three digit serial number beginning at 2...

These are the fretless basses I own right now:

A beautiful Skyline 55-02, my main fretless.


A hobby project: an old defretted Fender neck on a custom built body from Bizzotto guitars in Sweden. Needs shaping of the fingerboard before it is ready to play...

Now this beauty has arrived:

Here's a 28'' scale fretless I just finished (build thread in the Build diaries section). It's called the Flea Market Funk Machine as it was made entirely out of wood from furniture found at flea markets.

Totally forgot to post my newly acquired Bass Collection Jive fretless, very impressed for the money!!

It went straight on one of the tunes for JoCee's new album, will make sure I post that about in July (2018) when it's out. If you're reading this after that date, it'll be on Spotify, PM me if you can't find it.

Si

If you are interested, one fretless neckthrough is in the Vigier p*rn thread, page 9. Handmade, oil finish, 36" scale et al. Design by Kristian Ukkonen and me.

Photo by Kristian just after he completed the instrument.

That's the coolest, most gorgeous fretless I've ever seen.

It's also the most "no electronics in it as the ghost board has gone pop and thus it's an ornament at the moment" fretless bass I've ever seen!
