Alright! Any pertinent details to share?

Also, it must have come from someone other than you before hitting the music store though. I can't imagine anyone with your tastes in instruments having it setup the way it was.

yes...it must have come from somebody else because I sold it to Connecticut Music in Stamford CT. Details- there were only about six, black fretless made and two of them were five strings.

I bought the bass directly from the factory when they discontinued the USA Cruise line.

Here's a shot of my fretless Skyline Hollowbody (next to my soon to return to me DJ4!):

Hopefully, I will be able to add my Rob Allen Mouse very soon (Rob just e-mailed me, and it's almost done!). My Skjold Exotic Custom Fretless 5 is also forthcoming! :)

Tom.

Did you happen to use a Toad's Place ticket to shim the neck?

that's funny........no I didn't. That's a good bit of mojo though on that bass. It could still be mine....the next owner could have done that. I am researching the serial number on mine......I'll follow up and let you know.

And y'know, as good as that photo is (it's an "Official Bunnybass" photo shoot! ;) ), it misses the mark of how incredible that bass looks by a mile. This (it's sitting in my lap as I type :cool: ) is one of the most painful basses to look at that I've ever seen - and I used to work at Bass Central! :eek:

Gard, for being such a great contributor to TB, I'm offering you a free home security inspection. All I need are your alarm codes, work hours, and home address. PM me with details... ;)
