Fanndec 6 string fretless

[Annoying Twit]

I really like the look of these Fanndecs. However, I've never played one, so don't know what they're really like. On previous threads on here, I think some people said that they're quite decent.

My memory is *%&£. I searched through past history here, and while I've posted listings of these since 2011 (oh, if only I'd practiced an hour a day since then with no dropping out), no-one seemed to have ever played one. And the original new listings for these suggest they were a relative 'internet cheapie'. I still think they look really nice though.

I'd want to check what the top C sounds like with the bridge pickup, the string isn't too well placed over the poles.

Exactly the same problem was pointed out when one of these Fanndecs was discussed in a past year. Reviewing those threads suggests that my visual tastes have remained fairly constant over the years, but my long term memory is abysmal. In a previous thread Jon Letts discussed a number of apparent fit and finish problems with one of these.
