I just got my Squier CV 50 Precision back from the luthier, who defretted it, and put BEAD strings (Chromes) on it. The decal (and thus new name, "Squier Blue Baby Imprecision" in full) is my own. Behold!

This is a combination of pics, more details in that same PhotoBucket album!

Ive got a Peavey Foundation fretless :) Looking for a number! Here are some pics, I love her, and shes in pretty good shape for a 22 year old bass

How's the neck surface holding up? I have an old fretless Foundation and Fury, and both had some neck grooving going on. I epoxied the Fury already. Not sure if the neck grooving was a coincidence, or perhaps common amoung fretless Peaveys. :confused:

Well if, by grooving, you mean that the strings are directly grooving into the neck it isnt happening to me ... BUT there are some seriously visible lines were the strings have dug in to the fingerboard for 20 some years. So I can definitely see how that could happen. Then again, I doubt itll have any serious effect on the neck. If you want to contact Peavey they have stellar customer support and have always been quick to help me! Good luck :)

Already a CLUB MEMBER. Got this bass from a fellow TB'er. I haven't had a Fender bass in my collection for a very long time.

CIJ Fender Fretless Jazz, plays super smooth!

Of course, I CANNOT play it with the chrome covers on it. They do look great, but I loose too much playing area.:bassist:

I can't remember if I posted this fretless a couple of months ago....here it is again, a SpectorCore fretless 4 Piezo.

Wow....you are good. This bass came from TB'er "snyderz" from the AZ mountains.
Thanks for the compliment. Love the bass!

I was tempted to drive up to Show Low and check the siblings out when they hit the Phoenix CL a month or so back. If I had not just taken a pay cut and huge spike in my medical, I'd be playing them both now instead of typing on my computer.
