gone pending the usual MTD 635 Fretless 'Marilyn' £2500

[nobodysprefect]

This is the sister instrument to the fretted Marilyn I sold a couple of years back. It's time I admitted to myself I don't really play fretless. Also, it's time for my biennial 'sell everything' phase. I've had this bass from new, it's in mint condition. Played this on a few gigs, it's defo a gigworthy fretless.

This is really up there as far as fretlesses go. Very versatile thanks to the bartolini magnetic and Ghost piezo pickups. Can do 'that bridge pickup tone.' My ideas or intonation just never quite justify using that tone. Can also sound pretty close to J Giblin's Wal tone. Going full piezo gives a faux double bass tone. Excellent playability, the best out of the MTDs I've tried. Lightweight. Play wear practically non-existent. You can see on the fingerboard that it has been played some dozens of hours -- the 'markings' don't show on camera.

pretty light weight, will measure but it's on the lighter end for electrics and very much so for sixes
