Jack Bruce's fretless

[plugger]

What's the fretless bass Bruce plays in the Cream 2005 RAH reunion concert for "Sunshine Of Your Love"? It looks like a Warwick of some type -- can anyone will a more educated eye id it more precisely?

It's his signature Thumb NT bass

They also made him a "Warwickized" fretted & fretless version of his old Gibson EB-1, but by all accounts that didn't see much play - Bruce has been playing his Warwicks (pre-signature and post) for so long he simply seems to be far more comfortable on them for most of the show and a refitted EB-1 for a few songs.

It must be added that due to the "limited edition" nature of the Jack Bruce Cream Reunion bass; the price was sky high! I always preferred his Thumb basses anyway!

Jack is playing a pre-signature Thumb bass made in the early '90s with LEDs side markers. It also has an ebony frigerboard.

Don't the Jack Bruce Thumbs have an ebony fretboard, in keeping with the early 90's model? Is it just me, or do all Warwick fretless basses come with Ebony boards as standard?

Ebony is one of their options
