Fretless five string seemed to work well with two Rick mandolins at MARF IV when we did Money in it's entirety. :D

That was some pretty cool stuff. Kinda wish we had captured it on video, but it's also kind of a cool treat just for those who were there.

Of course they were fretless. I heard they were those 12 string fretless pedal steel mandolins...
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...
