I'm going to start saving...

I am drooling over this thing. http://www.rondomusic.net/sjb62ctfretless.html

I am going to start putting cash aside to buy one. Anyone own one of these?

If the pickups aren't satisfactory, I have some lace sensors sitting in my guitar/bass parts bin. What should I expect with this thing?

$140???
Kinda hard to go wrong if it plays at all.

I have no idea what in the world the other guy is talking about,but I say go for it.I am a firm beleiver in the SX/Brice stuff from Rondo,my friend bought one and I thought the pickups were fairly decent.A pickup switch could help,but you could always put the originals in now,couldn't ya?

I have the 5 string version in Lake Placid Blue. It's definitely worth the money. After I spent some time setting it up, it now gets a very pleasing, woody, fretless tone.

Good luck and have fun!

Awesome.

If only it were without fretlines...

I like the looks of that one myself.

I agree! Anyone know why they insist on fretlines? Is it because they mostly intend for their basses to be sold to beginners?

I am very interested in buying one... should I?

 

[McHaven]

I'm planning on getting one of those after my new amp and cab

The real question... This versus the real deal.. how does it compare to a fender jazz?

Well, I haven't actually played one, but from what I have heard from every single TBer I have seen talking about these basses, they are worth the money. I mean, they cost what, 1/8th of a Fender Jazz?

Just a thought, and something I noticed...

Istn't the thumb rest on the wrong side of the strings for a right handed bass? And if it isnt a right handed bass, it has weird configurations.
