The condition of this instrument is as new. The bass is unique and, in my opinion, the best fretless in terms of playability, ease of intonation, comfort and sound.

 

Finest bass building art in lightweight construction (chambered only 3,87 kg 6 String-Bass). I am the first owner and had this wonderful bass built for me from Le fay about 2 years ago and also played a lot in the clean (non-smoker) studio environment.

 

Price Information:

 

New price was 5.995,00 € and today according to price list of Le Fay 6.895,00 € with 1,5 - 2 years waiting time!

My price is 4.995,00 €

Stainless steel fingerboard!? I had to read that 3 times to check. How does that sound and feel? 

 

Quite close to a Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with just a bit more clarity in the notes. And the feel is somewhere between an ebony and an epoxied fingerboard.

 

I own this one :

It is true that the Pedulla Hexabuzz is an incredibly great fretless bass. If you're looking for the ultimate 6-string fretless, Le Fay's Remington Steele is a cut above in shaping, comfort and playability. And the sound is even clearer, more nuanced due to the stainless steel fingerboard, hard cherry body and construction. The light weight plays and the ease of intonation plays the Remington Steels over many hours much more pleasant.
  
Here is a very good description showing the details: https://www.lefay.de/index.php/EN/bass_models/remington-steele
