    Fretless question

    Sick Fretless Playing...

    ...Okay, maybe not sick, I just really LOVE this tone. Poster lists Tony Franklin Signature, and a Basstard OKKO pedal for additional gain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbyCFlwzaTw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9djDf7S2xQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZdUN9m5VMU

    Strings for fretless

    Warwick recommends the Black Label steels that came with my Corvette fretless, and I like them (I like the roundwound sound over flatwounds). However, an owner selling his 1999 Thumb 5 on ebay claimed that roundwounds caused some wear on the ebony fretboard. His closeup pics showed streaks...

    Fretless intonation issues

    I was checking my tuning after working on some songs and I was trying to establish the right key the song was in. I decided to check my intonation at the 12 th fret and all of the strings were fretting sharp to the harmonic. I was wondering where the true fret point is at the 12th. There are...

    Tone control on a Corvette Standard Fretless?

    Just picked up a used '01 Corvette Standard Fretless yesterday. The first control closest to the neck is the volume, then the pickup pan control, then a tone control? When I turn the tone control all the way down, it shuts off the output from the bass just like a volume control. I also can't...

    Rounds on my new fretless...

    I just got a new Corvette Standard fretless. It totally rocks! :D:D:D Anyway, I love that ballsy roundwound sound, and I like my big, nasty vibrato style, so I am probably going to be putting more-than-average wear on the fingerboard. My question is, how do I protect the fingerboard...
