I actually defretted a bass myself, pretty simple, mainly you need a lot of strength control to minimise damage to the fretbroad. Mine was an experimental neck, hence I jsut filled it with wood putty and there I got a lined fretless neck.

how did it feel and sound to you?

i thought after defretting you still have to spray with epoxy[or other thing,not really sure] so that the fret wont be damaged by string friction?

Loads of info and links to various step-by-step tutorials there. Doesn't sound too difficult... don't mind trying it out on an el cheapo, but don't know where to find epoxy/polyurethane to cover the fretboard once i'm done with it
