Marcus Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) Hi Guys, I purchased from this forum just 8 weeks ago a rather nice Vintage Fretless PJ currently strung with Rotosound Flats it's a great entry into fretless only little issue is the nut has a piece chipped off the side, this doesn't affect the secure location of the string in the slot in any way, but I wanted to mention it [b]GAS is attacking so it's up for grabs at a stupid price of £80 [/b] ONO - these sell in the shops at £239 and represent great value at that ! [b]Price Drop to £70 collected[/b][u][/u] Original for sale thread [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=15760&hl=vintage+fretless"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=...intage+fretless[/url] NB the colour is best represented by the first photo, very Warwick Thumb sort of vibe !!

Frusty Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) I see it's not lined but are there fret marker dots on the side of the fretboard? Edited July 16, 2008 by Frusty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 Yes indeed there are dots at the fret position...... makes it pretty easy to reference, I have to say after playing this bass i'm really into fretless and will at some point venture into the fretless world again.... and it'll be unlined again ! ........the lads in the band were pretty impressed when I turned up for rehearsal and played a couple of numbers on an unlined fretless !!!

Netballman Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 How much to post Marcus? Sadly I just don't think a meetup is likely to be feasible (though I may be in Leicester on 6 August, but on a motorbike!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
