Re: fretless baritone gtr



I have seen (never played) fretless stick adaptations (usually on 2 or 
three 
strings on the bass side)

They apparently use a meal strip for the fingerboard (I assume to give you 
a 
harder striking surface). I would IMAGINE (again, never played one).  that 
it would have a more "mellow" sound given your finger is directly 
involved, 
but if your a fretless player now, you're used to that anyway

Ciao.

I can swear that someone mentioned a fretless baritone gtr here a few 
weeks 
ago..…Can someone point me to it?  Did that Godin Gliss. have a longer 
scale? I had toyed around with getting another chapman stick & making one 
side fretless as well.


Thanks

LOU
