Greetings, I wanted to know if there is anyone out there may have a Cavin Fretless bass. The model I think is the AC50F. I'd like to know if there is anyone out there with real world experience with this bass. Thanks in advance!!!
I have the AC40F, and I like it. It has a slight dead spot in the neck, but overall the sound is great--woody and growly. Very light in weight and good construction. Doesn't cut through like I wish it would in a loud band situation, but that isn't really what it's made for anyway, in my experience. It's great for acoustic-ish stuff. I think a search would turn up some more information, and if you have any specific questions I'd be happy to give them a shot. However, I'm about to disconnect my computer to move to a new place, and I'll probably be without internet access for a few days. I'll check back when I can. Good luck!
Norm Stockton (http://www.normstockton.com/) swears by his, and I have to agree: In his hands it sounds wonderful.
