It's not fretted, it has inlays where the lines are. When I was at Berklee, I did one of my proficiencies on my Buzz bass and I played the first Bach cello suite for the teachers and then a variety of other things they put me through. They thought it was pretty good, but one of them commented that I kept pulling my strings out of tune. I then pointed out that I was doing the best I could with the fretless I had only owned for 6 months. So, they all thought it was fretted from about 15 feet away.

Not to hijack this, but Edwin... Check your inbox.... I have a quick question.....
 
As far as the sound of a buzz bass, the first time I heard one was in the early 90s.... A Motown review band, and yes it made a lasting impression... I even remember the stage lights hitting the epoxy and wondering if the board was glass!
