bottomfeed Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 Love this bass!...... the aria fretless acoustic is a real gem!... designed to actually sound fat.. with a big body.... ... I really like it.. My first proper bass was an Aria P bass copy.. & it was built better than the real thing to be honest ...So I was willing to give this a proper look.... really like it... & it has f holes!... It sounds great & it's not that expensive.... Any other love for the Aria FEBFLUFFEN 7 Quote
Grahambythesea Posted May 1, 2023 Posted May 1, 2023 I’ve thought about one often, as you say they’re not expensive. However having a NS NXT EUB ( that really is too many initials, sorry) I wonder whether I would get any use from an FEB at all? Quote
Ralf1e Posted May 4, 2023 Posted May 4, 2023 Lovely looking bass. 24 dot marker fretless. Maybe a bit ambitious 🤣 Quote
alittlebitrobot Posted May 4, 2023 Posted May 4, 2023 I played one in my local music shop a couple of times. It feels and sounds amazing, and surprisingly affordable. I just can't honestly justify the expense or the space it would take up in my wee house. If I had a bigger house, I wouldn't be able to hold back. Enjoy! 1 Quote

KeithCarterHarris Posted yesterday at 15:26 Posted yesterday at 15:26 I have just bought one of these beautiful bass guitars and I am VERY happy with it. My question to others who may own one, is have you tried flat wounds on it and if so, did it require a set up? Keith Quote
bottomfeed Posted 19 hours ago Author Posted 19 hours ago (edited) Yes I put La Bella flats on mine.. makes the sound really authentic... Didn't like those weird bronzed rounds at all. I took some advice from someone on TalkBass and got a lighter gauge than I would normally use, so they fit in the nut grooves, which would've needed making wider otherwise.. sound is still fat and the strings feel right.. 😁😎 I have a guitar guy who sets up stuff for me (lazy!) but not much had to be done to it...

petebassist Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago Looks great, what’s it like to play without a finger rest? Quote
