There is a short scale ACG Krell for sale on BC. If you live near Liverpool I’d strongly advise you to go and take a look if you’re after a modern bass. -

I have a ZPO5 and it balances as a normal jazz. The B on it is great, so you can imagine how good a 4 would be. -

I personally don’t like the grating of fingers over round stings on fretless and find D’Adario chrome flats to be the smoothest metal strings. However, Labella nylons are like glass.

If you want to really add something different and new, have a think about an inexpensive EUB to play with for a while. If that takes your fancy, I’d recommend the Discover Double Bass starter course to help you get going as the hand technique at the start is important.

I wanted to try out the ACG01 filter preamp that John East sells on an fretless and so decided to utilise a Harley Benton as a vehicle to house it. The bass is ridiculously good and comfortable for the money before I made any changes. However I ploughed on and replaced the preamp and the strings with D’Adarios chrome flats that I’ve found the best fretless string for my taste. The result is a pretty good WAL-a-like (to an extent) but a rather indulgent build.

Sire U5 ( which is 4 string ) Atelier ZPO 4 (if you can find one) If your budget runs to an ACG you won’t be disappointed.

I own a 5er that’s fitted with Labella flats. It does the old thud thing very well. The neck feels wide at the dusty end.

I just passed a really nice G4M bass down the line for £400 with a bag and pickup. Starter double basses are making strides like starter electric basses…..

Before you buy an ‘acoustic’ bass try a double bass for a while if you don’t have one already.

I’d chuck in the Chowny, it’s a new UK bass and there aren’t that many.

Mine has the front strap pin on the horn, so not as bad as the original positioning.
