Hey Guys,
I did a search and there was great info but I just wanted something all in one thread I can follow. I have an 04 Fender MIA J (with rosewood board) and want to convert it to fretless... The info I would like is:
1. Honestly, how hard is this going to be for someone with NO experience in woodworking or bass building - I mean I know how to set up basses, wire pickups, etc... But I've never messed with the wood (neck & body) itself.
2.Tools and materials necessary. Is epoxy really necessary if I plan to use flats?
3. Step by step instructions.
4. If my request is too time consuming, please recommend a good book for this.
My deepest thanks,
Yohann
