Thank you 4 Octave Fun. The comments made were pretty helpful to me as well. I really enjoyed the discussion.

I guess I’m confused?????? Where’s the Tort???

That looks like a fun bunch. :smug:

That’s interesting I was just thinking how little I use the b string on my fretless Makes sense to add the c string
