I guarantee nobody else has one like it. I didn't even know whether to check the Y box on "fretless" on this one or leave it blank.
Burn it? Buy it? This bass splits the vote!
That's not all it splits:
This bass is a Peavey T-40 body, pickups, and bridge, with a Millennium neck divided into fretless and fretted portions, the notes up to the twelfth fret fretless, the notes above fretted. A slight ramp enables smooth transition from fretless to fretted. The T-40 is famous as one of the most versatile, underrated basses on the planet, so you know it sounds great, and there's no buzzing on the modded neck at any point.
It's fun to loop fretless bass parts and play solid, fretted chords over them, all on the same bass.
One thing it doesn't split is you from your significant other: only 700 USD plus shipping, saving you the hundreds of dollars in labour a mod like this costs.
Let Big Mort, the talented fellow who modded the neck, suggested the parts, and put this together for me, show you how it sounds:
