Back in 2001 I bought a EBMM Stingray 5 new. At the time they didn't have the neck p/u option so I got the piezo bridge option just for some tonal variety. And, while that's an interesting toy on a fretted bass, I don't find myself using it much and wishing I had held out for a MM/J style stingray. But I think the piezo would be cool on a frettless.
So, my idea would be to find a fretless Stingray with the MM/J style and just swap the necks. I'm handy, but by no means a pro luthier. In y'alls opinion is this as simple as it sounds, or am I missing some complications that just frankly wouldn't be worth it?
And, this is all just hypothetical right now, just something I've been wondering about. Thanks.
