Great job! That board on the neck is such a perfect match for the body. And that grain on the board is outstanding!!!!!! Great looking bass. I like the looks of it better with the fretless neck ;) Pure Class!!!!

This is nuts, I took it to a rehearsal today and it was great I am still all over the place on the fretboard but getting easier all the time.

There is one huge problem ..... I now want a fretless 25th, this may have been a very bad idea for my pocket.

Phantastic... and yes, going fretless adds a new dimension to GAS :D

Wouldnt it be cool to have them both in the same room so we could A/B them !

That would be v cool :)

Glad you're enjoying your fretless - as Oli says it does add a new dimension - you should find playing accuracy improves quickly. A good song to use to practice is Wherever I Lay My Hat etc by Paul Young - beautiful fretless playing by Pino Palladino and quite hard to play accurately (for me at least!) as it moves about the board quite a lot, and varies from singing notes with vibrato to a groove. Walking bass lines also sound great on a fretless 'Ray.

Best of luck with the GAS - do you reckon they'll offer a fretless Gamechanger Reflex :eek:
