cLepto-bass Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 My Sandberg's have all had them. It came in handy when I decided to buy a JJ5 to load up with high C as no need to mess about with the nut. Great basses and a great idea the zero fret.

dave_bass5 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I always thought a bass with zero frets was a fretless lol. My Lakland is even better. It has 20 frets yes, im bored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I was asking Jon Shuker about a Zero fret when I was commissioning my Jazz neck from him. He said that in his view they're not really needed if enough care and skill goes into setting up the nut properly. Not saying I understand the pro's and cons for either argument.......just relaying what he said Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIM Basses Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Hi Guys, Ive got an hour long video with Roger sadowsky on his basses, setup, pickups, construction etc. He doesnt use a zero fret if im right, each to there own on this one! Cheers, Robbie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
