I remember these at the bass centre in Wapping about 1986. They were very, very, cool.

Clearer images of the fingerboard, the marks are only surface they dont effect the sound and would come out with a very light sand.

I used to have a half fretted Steinberg-esque Wilkes in blue, fantastic instrument, just wish i had some spare cash.

Oooh an excellent bit of wood work for the cash. I am sorely tempted but cant justify another fretless 4. Hmmmm still its very tempting.

If this had a bridge pickup I'd have bought it ages ago!
