Wanted: Fretless 5 string -- Series I/II if possible...
« on: December 13, 2007, 09:17:37 AM »
Hello all,  
 
I am looking a fretless 5 to keep my fretted Series bass company. Ideally, I would like Series electronics; at least, Signature. Europa body shape a plus, as is a macassar ebony or koa top. A man can dream...

Hi, how you doing?  
I still have your Europa 5 bass and am still very happy with it.

Hi Jazzyvee,
 
Good to hear from you -- hope everything's going well! I'm glad you still enjoy the Europa, it was a great bass and I must say I do miss it.

Hey r5,
Any interest in a standard Orion 5 fretless, with walnut top wood, in excellent condition?

Correction: there is 'much' money to be made above the fifth fret....

Hi Chris,
 
Your bass sounds lovely, but I'm really looking for separate pickup filters at least. Thanks for letting me know, though!
 
Cheers

Yes, indeed.....I knew it was a long-shot, but I thought I'd throw it out there for you anyway. Good luck on your search!
