Hi, Can anyone out there help me with with some info on which solder joint the yellow wire is attached from the main pcb. At a guess it is either to the ear phone pins or to the input jack. I say this because the tags have been tinned with solder. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks. Tom

I'll put it this way! In the early days when Mozart was alive the piano in use in the 18th century was simply 5 octaves. Just look at his piano compositions, all within 5 octaves! Time has moved on, the standard piano is now 7 1/4 octaves. No one in their right mind would stick a 5 octave...

Ernie Ball slinky roundwound on the fretted, expermenting with different flats for the fretless which is turning out to be +@%? expensive.

Excellent, I'll get on with it and hopefully when things settle in (new strings-new bass) I will record something for reference. Thank you Michael, stay safe.Tom

Michael, once again I appreciate your help. I will give these strings a try. I also viewed on You Tube 'The ultimate bass string shootout' on Scotts Bass Lessons, maybe a Black Nylon set if they do them for a six string?? Tom.

Yes, I understand. Soooo, just exploring all options especially if someone owns the same fretless and uses flats with tapered. Thank you Michael.

Nut to bridge is 35". The longest string distance on this bass from ball end side of the bridge to the tunning post is 41" and that is for the A string. I would like to add that I would prefer tapered strings on the low B and E over full wounds to make the strings sit better on the bridge...

Just purchased a TRB-6P fretless with roundwound strings and would like to hear if anyone uses flatwound medium/light on these. There does not seem to be much of a choice on extra long flats. Tom.
