There are many good methods these days. Steve Bailey has a good fretless book. Ed Friedland has several good books. You can't go wrong with scales. The best way to learn bass is to get in band and play. I would say that the approach you are currently on is tried and true. One of my students is a cro...

Welcome to Fretless Bass kopio! Your choice for a 1st fretless (Fender Squire Modified) is one highly regarded by other players, especially at that price. The Ebonal fingerboard is reported to mwah very nicely. My only advice for you at this time is to keep the horn player instincts under your hat a...

Carvin electronics Comparable to Bartolini? In a word... no. They come from different makers and have different specifications so are bound to perform differently. To be honest I don't own a Carvin bass so really can not directly compare differences in sound and quality. Ed Friedland endorses Carvin...

OK, you have a buzz that happens in active mode when you boost the Mid control beyond the center detent while panned to the bridge P/U. You say that this is a new sound so probably not caused by the person who installed the humbucker, however this is still possible if the problem is a cold (or bad) ...

Before installing Bartolini's try a few things to isolate your distortion problem. The current P/Us may not need replacement. The placement of the P/U closer to the bridge is a good thing fretless tone wise. I wouldn't be dis-satisfied with that particular aspect of your bass. The hard distortion yo...

OK, Why NOT get a Fender Jaco. The Fender Jaco Relic is expensive . You could get a functionally identical Fender fretless Jazz for much less money. Personally, I would love to have one (Fender Jaco) but I play mainly five and six string these days. That bass has a lined fingerboard. An unlined Ebon...

Welcome to FretlessBass kell_boy! I find that faint lines are preferable to obvious ones. Once you get your side markers in the proper positions you will find that the lines are less important. Regarding your question about relocating side dots. This is a very common problem, fretless bass manufactu...
