[quote name='silddx' post='561447' date='Aug 5 2009, 08:23 PM']Hello Mart, I was actually wondering if it could be tigerstripe ebony, I know that's Wick standard for fretless at the moment but i've seen some new ones with wenge too. I reckon you might be right actually, there was no info on the Thomann site. Certainly sounds more like ebony.
There are some numbers we do that are more jazzy or sensitive, so I'll probably switch to passive for those, but there are some others that require vast amounts of distortion and echo, so active for those, as well as the dance and poppier songs.
Have to admit, I'll miss the sheer tone of the Kopo, so responsive to the fingers. Can't possibly justify keeping her though, got to pay Mrs silddx back for the Wick
Cheers,

Cheers Nigel, I'm still tempted by the Green passive fretless Vette on sale - that's why I'm asking. By the way, the Kopo is gorgeous - but about £150 more than I have in the Fretless budget. Having said that, a fretless of that quality would be wasted on me
