Yes, it was done by a luthier. I paid 80euros for the fretless job. It was easy and fast for him to do it. The most difficult part was changing the pick ups by the EMG Geezer Butler since it was not working at first.

Thank you ! Now, I have a lot of work learning the fretless bass ;-)

Thank you @sissy kathy :-). I didn't choose to install a P cover for the neck because I play with my finger on top of the pickup and I don't know how to play differently...

Hello everyone, here are some pics of my Squier jaguar SS with some modification (fretless, pickups etc.) If you have any other advice, don't hesitate :-)

Thanks RedJag ! I purchase everything before bringing it to my luthier even the strings. And I would like to order it before the end of the month so I can play my "new" bass as soon as possible :-). It's a shame I didn't get a notice manual with this squier so I would know what to buy exactly.

Hello everyone, I've just received my squier jag and I love it !!! The set up was ok out of the box. Before bringing the bass to the luthier, i would like to buy some new potentiometers and chrome knobs. Could you please recommend me some ? I've read CTS is a good brand but I don't know which...

i will post pictures. I should receive the bass in 2 weeks. It was out of stock in my area. The luthier will work on it in January.

I am going to ask the luthier to do it. It will be best for sure :-D

Thank you GoLeafsGo ! Would this cover be ok : Invalid Link Removed I am going to check on the geezers pickups, thanks ! Love your bag by the way :)

Thank you for your answer RedJag ! I thought that nylon strings were perfect for fretless basses, preserving the fretboard and getting a warmer and rounded sound. I was wrong. I prefer flatwounds even on my fretted mustang.

Hello everyone, I started playing the bass 2 month ago with a mustang pj and would also like to start playing on a fretless. I have just ordered a squier vintage modified jaguar special ss (candy red apple) that will be defretted by a luthier. I was thinking about getting La Bella nylon...

I love in a small village in France and the only used basses available near my area are expensive American models I am not afraid about stretching my fingers but more about the weight and neck of the bass. For exemple, I find standard folk guitars very uncomfortable but love the travel sizes.

Thank you for your reply. I may be able to try the jazz bass tomorrow (fingers crossed) but couldn't find any mustang pj in my area. My first choice was a short scale but I wanted to make sure I make the best choice :) I can get a brand new fender special edition white opal jazz bass for 510...

Hi everyone, I want to start playing the bass after playing several instruments including piano and guitar. The bass will be mostly used in my home studio. I started getting advices and looking for information and I hesitate between 2 models : - Fender Mustang offset PJ - Fender Jazz Bass...
