Fretless Warwicks with Passive Pickups

[1dgbass]

Hey All,

Just wanted to post a quick question.

The title says it all, just wondering if they make Fretless Warwicks with passive electronics. If I get a fretless, anyone have any suggestions? I love the slides. Players like Jack Bruce make me want to play a fretless.

I have been playing bass for 3 years and have been playing a fender american jazz for 2.

I don't expect to buy this new bass for a while b/c I have to save. I would never want a bass with active electronics and have to worry about batterys for the rest of my life. Forget that!! I don't care what kind of sound I get out of an active bass.

Thanks

All and any commentary will be apreciated.

P.S Sorry I had to bash on Active basses. Just not a fan.

Corvette Standard fretless is passive (don't know if they make an active version or not, but I have yet to see one). Or you could order through custom shop of course, but that's $$$$

i have one. is an old corvette standart, wich i bought used and i bad neck shape.
i fix it the better i could, and leaved the neck without the frets, with fret lines.
if requested, i can post some pics and samples.

If you want the lower end of the Warwick scale
the Rockbass Streamer fretless is passive with dual soaps
