I just found this thread...I have been totally digging the Brukeck Brothers last 2 CD's. Chris has the most amazing sound..there are times when I absolutely swear he is playing an upright..but as I understand it, he plays only his fretless ric which has been fairly heavily modified.
there are clips of him on youtube playing his fretless extremely well...and singing at the same time
