Pros:	The list just goes on and on.
Cons:	Huh?

My Conklin is a lined fretless. I keep it around for some low volume jazz gigs and anytime I get the itch to play fretless. It has great tone-- really meows. It has a ton of options on it, including a blank output spot for an optional MIDI connector to go with the piezo bridge. I can get a lot of nice sounds out of it and the fingerboard has a satin polyester coating on it to keep it from getting torn up by roundwounds.

I've had the bass for a little over a year and it still looks brand new.
