Bought this bass from this thread a while back: Fretless P Bass - Custom Paint - Mighty Might Neck
Its a Squier P body and Mighty Might Fretless neck custom painted by TBer StreetScenes. I dropped in a Duncan SPB-1, swapped in black hardware and put a faux carbon fiber pickgaurd. The green strings came from StreetScenes and I actually don't hate them. This is a cool little fretless bass to dink around on. Not really normally what I am into, but I wanted it to look like the Oregon Duck football uniforms...

Probably won't be putting them on any of my other basses though...

How do they sound? I was going use set of Black Beauties, but I picked up a set and the g or a string had a odd vibration sound. I took them back and same thing with the new set. |
