Delacquering my 73 fretless

[brianb]

I need some advice. I have a 73 fretless with some worn areas on the fretboard that cause buzzing. Stripping the lacquer is an option. Has anyone ever done this and what was the affect on the sound? I'm a little nervous because this bass pretty much plays itself. Thanks !

Bob Young did once and wasn't impressed Brian.

Hopefully he'll chime in....

What month is your '73? I have an April "MD" one, and just love it.
