eubassix Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 Thanks Keir - it is a nicely constructed and great playing/sounding fretless. It's also pretty light, but has a really full sound. I like this construction method, although it's not used a great deal by bass luthiers: the Marleaux 'M' series have a similar / developed neck joint.
