    Production Fretless, NO LINES

    It seems that most manufacturers have their token Fretless but they all have lines. Even fender really only makes one, the Tony Franklin. So everyone chime in with any production Fretless I don’t really care about price, however once we start getting toward 2k it might as well be custom to a point.

    SVT-48he speakers

    So I scored one of these cabinets yesterday for a really great price. It works well and sounds pretty good. The grill frame needs to be redone but that will be easy enough.
