I must be going crazy. I'm not just sticking my toe in the fretless pool, I'm diving in. I fell in love with this on the Bass Central site. As it turns out, it's their old site and don't have it in stock. But they're ordering me one. Stealth fretless!

Congrats...the stealth fretless is on my wish list. It looks so angry and dark. Are you looking at an April arrival?

Yes, they said 3 months. I've always liked the stealth on all models, but something about the unlined ebony board with the Ray just looks SICK. :)

After mulling this over, I changed my order. I decided I wanted to go with something more vintage/traditional on my fretless. Fortunately, it wasn't too late to change my order (although I've likely delayed it a bit by changing things). I'm now getting a Honey burst SR4 w/ matching headstock and pau ferro fretboard, like the one below. I think I'll be happier in the long run with this combo.

I still want a stealth, just not sure which model. :)

Well, so much for changing the order. Bass Central tried, but the boys at EBMM already started building my stealth. Stealth it is!

If for some reason it arrives and doesn't float your boat, drop me a line. I've been eyeing the same package for a while myself. I would make room in the stable for it ;)

I LOVE the ebony board on my BFR Roasted Ray. It's got tone for days! I've decided that when I get my fretless it must have ebony. Pau Fero is good, but ebony is more my flavour.

Sounds good, I'm thinking I would prefer to flip it, I was hoping to get a lined fretless instead. I think the unlined may be a bit above my skill level. :)
