The other knob is volume and the switch is a pickup selector.
The tones range from a smooth Jazz to a seriously growly Stingray. |

|  | Registered Schmoozer. | | | | | Pretty. Intriguing.
Are the "smile" frets supposed to work something like fanned frets, or is there another rationale behind them? |

| | Registered Schmoozer. | | | | Thanks for the explanation. If this were a fretless, I'd find it seriously difficult to resist. I'm salivating just a little as it is. Quote:

| | Registered Schmoozer. | | | | | That looks painful -- and I'd prefer no lines. But it is a beautiful bass. |
