Hello fellow bass freaks. I need your collected expertise in the matter of choosing a fretless 5 string. To make it easy, I've narrowed it down to two and only two choices.
1) Unlined Stingray 5 with Piezos.
2) Original model Gary Willis Signature 5'er, with the ebony board instead of the ebonol. That being said, is the ebonol-board model that much different than the ebony one?
I'd like your input outside of price, and especially would like to hear from those who have actually played these models. I think I'm leaning towards the Willis, but am worried about it being a one-trick-tone-pony. Thanx in advance.

). I kind of wish I still had the Stingray. It had the piezo upgrade- very versatile. Oh yeah- I also prefer wider spacing. I like Ibanez in general, but have never played a Willis.
