Fretless bass anon opinion

[SimonK]

Unlined for me although I do keep an always on tuner on the floor to glance at every now and again when I can't hear myself and need reassurance. Thus said I've never struggled too much with intonation as I generally slide into each note coz that's kind of the point of fretless mwah.

 

At the moment I only have two basses so although the fretless is the first choice for a couple songs, I generally use it as a backup as it can do everything except slap at a pinch, so is great for a fretless option plus backup if needed.

Here's my first bass. I should have kept it.

One of many contenders for the BC motto

BTW I de-fretted my Ibanez Studio 8 with a claw hammer. It actually worked, though I have learned the proper way since.

I defretted my Marlin Sidewinder. Filled the slots with polyfilla. It sounds OK, but the pickups are very noisy and you can't use it within a mile of a fridge or dimmer switch. Hence it's in the loft.
