    B-G, don't know the gauge, came with a new bass, but they're not for me. Cut for 4 over 1 Fender style headstock. £35 posted. Cheers

    Sorry to reply late. Thanks for the offer of info. I guess it works well enough with bass, as opposed to guitar? Does a built-in pickup (as in the Godin) have any significant advantages over the GK3b? I have a lovely fretless I'd have to sell to buy a Godin... Any relevant info would be very welcome, or direction to relevant info... Cheers, Sean

    I'm seriously considering buying one of these, was wondering if anyone has any experience of them? Particularly, how acoustic the piezo tone is... I believe they're prone to neck dive... Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for that. I'm thinking of getting a Godin A4 fretless, and pairing it with this....

    Is this still available?

    I second the above comment. A few years ago, I visited Bass Direct with my credit card in hand, and murder in mind. Played half a dozen wonderful fretlesses, (including Zon, Roscoe, and NS) but none compared to the Portamento waiting at home.

    Typical Ibanez quality, far outweighs it's price tag. Mine is just incredibly versatile, and so easy to play. I would definitely recommend you get one...

    I have one. E-C with white nylons. Incredibly versatile and rewarding to play. It marks very easily though. Mine is looking quite roadworn...

    I have a sneaking suspicion that our wives all know about our 'habits', and just choose to turn a blind eye...

    Bought this beauty only 6-7 weeks ago from Tony (Towack) on here. I have enjoyed getting to grips with it, but I don't have the time or headspace to become proficient at it. Link to Tony's ad below, listing all his improvements. I have added a brand new budget bow and rosin to the deal... The drum stand in the pictures is NOT included in the sale (as my son wants it back), but I can recommend it as being very useful. I added the 'fret stickers', also helpful, I found. Postage is not really a viable option, so collection from Dalton-in-Furness would be ideal. I am willing to meet half way, within reason... An excellent introduction to the world of double bass/eub. Happy to answer questions I've missed. Cheers, Sean

    Particularly on fretless

    I've found Labella white nylons to have all the requirements you want..

    Pedulla Buzz. They sound awesome, but they look like a melting lollipop. The top horn shape actually makes me a bit angry...

    Blue, no, yellow... Aaargh!

    ... just kidding

    Any trades?

    G&l Sb-2 Tribute. Jazz width neck, but deeper in depth. Pj, with phenomenal mfd pickups. Great value for money, sounds fantastic with flats

    Similar to Adamg67's post, 2 above,. Have you tried changing strings? Sounds stupid, but a different 'type' of string can make a big difference. White nylon LaBellas, for instance, can really change the tone/feel. Also, TI rounds are a bit of a revelation...
