Hi bud, I was wondering; why don't you make the Ibanez fretless? I was thinking of offering you my fretted 5string + some cash to get the Ibanez from you to make it fretless as it seems the perfect bass for that with that pickup position and piëzo... Of course that trade doesn't make sense now as I see you're looking for a fretless as well, but that makes me even more curious why you don't just get the Affirma professionally refretted.. Lovely bass btw, I must admit I'm tempted, just have to sell my fretted 5'er first. Edited April 25, 2020 by Bassdude BE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
