That's just weird. And I wish there wasn't such a small limit to the height and width of the picture.
I can give you the specs, but it won't be the same as seeing it for yourself.

Ugh, that's tough trying to visualize it. Must get this pic up!
That's just beyond beautiful.
Even though they are beautifully built, I'm really not a big fan of Bee basses, they just never feel that comfortable to me. But this bass really caught my attention when I saw it in the TB ads .......
It's a good thing the seller is halfway across the countryIf it was local and I could put my hands on that moose I might be a few sheckles poorer right now ...
oh my, that is gorgeous, i love the fingerboard! is that a standard body shape?
I'm pretty sure that's a knee-bee. And that'd be absolutely perfect IF it had an all wenge neck.
This one right here. It's a beauty and it's been giving me GAS ever since I ordered it. It's finally done so once I receive it I should have my GAS quenched at least for a year.

Excuse me for my ignorance but is the fretboard fretted under the middle 3 strings? It looks that way from the pic but the pic is too small to see for sure.
It finally shows up! But sorry about the large picture.
Yummie, tasty lil piece that!

if you want a blind guess, i would say it's the fret lines and it is in fact fretless.
GAS? that would be this then:
Best thing...in less than a week I'll have it!! Sometimes you just have to give in to your GAS, right?

I covet another's bass, is that wrong? Thunderritter's Ursa Major By KRGuitars is the best thing I've laid eyes on in ages, This is my first attachment, hope it took.
It's an Ibanez ATK fretless, 3 pole pickup and active EQ (so very versatile for tone!), lined rosewood board. Basically the Ibanez take on a Musicman. The fretted ones nail growly rock tones, can't wait to see what this baby sounds like though! To tell the truth I've been gassin' for an ATK for years but I'm glad I waited because this one has the nicest finish I've seen on one ever. Or on any other bass, for that matter...
