|  | Well, Ahoy Paloi | | Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Cape Cod, MA | | | Beautimous! I had to pick in 2004 between a Zon Sonus fretted and Modulus Q5 and picked the Modulus only b/c the neck felt more slim to me. In hind site, I wish I chose the Zon- great basses. Love the simplicity too of the 1 knob, one pickup. Good Luck, I am sure you will sell it soon. |

Nut width is 1 7/8", bridge spacing is 2 13/16" between G and B strings, 34" scale, excellent condition, there are some minor finish marks from the original bridge (I put the Hipshot bridge on), and from the Hipshot Ultralite tuners I had on the bass (the original ZON tuners are back on it, as seen).

I have a fretted Sonus 5/1 that Joe did the same for me, but with a burl California walnut top on it.

|  | Advanced Beginner | | Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: Moraga, California | | | That's a beauty! I picked up a Zon Sonus Fretless 5 several months ago, and I love it. Still struggling to get fully comfy with 5 strings though. I'm on the prowl for a Sonus 4, with or without frets.
