Did I mention that the fretless Aria Sinsonido has lines on the fretboard...................
Sorry Joey. I could not resist.
After many years of playing guitar I got into the habit of not looking at the fretboard, so it took me a bit of time to get used to playing a fretless bass. I love the sound of an upright on jazz numbers and this bass gives me that sound.

Your fretless bass performance and recording on my version of Georgia still takes my breath away Joey. You did a great job my friend. Gotta love those Rick fretless basses.
OK I am leaving the bass forum now................

Hearing that always brings a smile to my face Brian...

Ron,
To my ears, your old bass is the nicest sounding Rick that I have ever played. I just love that bass. I could never thank you enough. It is just what I wanted.
