Fretless
  1. Y
I know little about this bass except that it sounds amazing and feels great. I just don't have any gigs where I can use a fretless.

From the original paperwork, it seems that this was refinished as well as defretted. Looks like it's shown up on talkbass before, too. Originally made for Tad Kinchla of Blues Traveler.

Hipshot hardware, 19mm bridge, Nordstrand Fatstack pickups.

Includes a semi-hard case.

Since there is a knob missing I am wondering if the preamp has been removed? Is it wired passive? If there is a preamp in there what is it? Thanks!

I think it’s still the Nordstrand. Pics attached. 34” scale length.

That is a Nordstrand 3B preamp, but wired with the stack being BASS and MID, with the TREBLE getting deleted and a passive tone in its place.

The orange-violet-green wires should be soldered to resistors to mimic it being in the middle position, and then were likely shrink-wrapped.
The grey and lighter orange wires are for mid frequency changes.

If one wanted to restore the electronics to have these controls, wiring is all there. Just need small parts to make it happen.

Cool bass! Best of luck with the sale.
