Unlined fretless fingerboard position of side dots
petergales replied to petergales's topic in Bass Guitars
I find this problem with lined boards as I tend to go the 'wrong' side of the line. With a plain board I can adjust my finger position more-or-less in the way I used to do with my double bass. -

Thanks BigRedX. What brand was the bass you mention in your post? -

Thanks Beedster. You got it correct. I'm looking for an unlined board with side markers in the same location as they would be if the board was fretted. Good tip about the marker pen and Tippex - thanks. -

Thanks. That's a fair point. -

Thanks. I'll try to follow that up. -
Does anyone know of a manufacturer who makes a fretless where the side dot markers are in the same position as they would be on a fretted bass? I get a bit confused when I try lined boards but side dots on an unlined board seem more natural to me. I don't want to go to the expense of a custom job, just want to play for fun really. Thanks Pete

Just bought a TH500 from Steve in an absolutely straightforward transaction. It came really well-packed and totally as described. Deal with him in complete confidence, a real credit to Basschat. Thanks Steve.

Just sold my black jazz to Karl. Great guy with excellent comms and does exactly what he says he's going to do with no fuss. Plus I thoroughly enjoyed our chat when he came to pick up the bass.

Just bought a Stingray from Paul. Absolutely straight forward transaction with everything exactly as he had described it. Excellent communications which allowed us to meet up at a convenient motorway services and have a great chat. Paul is a perfect gent and a credit to the Basschat community. You can deal with him with absolute confidence.

I have 1 ticket left for Nick Mason's Saucer Full Of Secrets tour when it arrives in York on Friday 1st May 2020. It's on at the Barbican, York, starting at 7.30. The seats are all sat together if that helps. I've seen this show already and we all thoroughly enjoyed it - Guy Pratt on bass and one of the Kemp brothers on guitar. It's an e-ticket so I can forward them to another phone I think.

Price drop to £700! I bought this on a bit of a whim (as one does) from The Bass Gallery. As I think I've only gigged it once I'll use their pictures they are much better than mine and it's in exactly the same condition. It dates from 2007 and has the S1 switch which gives it that extra punch when needed. The upgrades are the fitting of Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder pick ups and a Badass III bridge. I don't have the original bridge, pick ups or case. It is in excellent condition and has no issues. Only selling because I have 4 Jazz basses and only use two of them. As I have no means of packing it I would prefer collection from Leeds or a meet up within reasonable distance.

Just sold my Elrick to Steve. He's a first rate guy and I enjoyed our chat over a cup of coffee. His comms are great and he came up to Leeds with cash to collect. You can deal with him with utmost confidence. A credit to Basschat.
