i had d opportunity to borrow a fretless bass for a day. never had the chance to lay my hands on these stuff before and man, it sure was fun.
contrary to my assumption, i found that the fretless was not as hard to play as i had earlier imagined. if you already play bass, it just needs some getting used to. however pity it was equipped with roundwounds instead of flatwound. now itching to strip my fretboard naked!
question: do fretless generally lack volume compared to fretted ? i had to crank up the amp to almost max to get a decent sound. and, are flatwound strings expensive?
so what do you guys think of a fretless?
