    This video shows the journey from the first idea of an Ibanez bass with a fretboard to the final result. The song that I play is called "Our Soul Sets Sail" from my solo record 'Tulpa'.

    Hopefully you make the cut for the next signature artist. That bass definitely deserves to see a production model.

    Vigier made the surfcaster years ago - 1992 or so - ....Le Fay make a fretless base with a metal fretboard......but I think you've got the first Ibanez Fretless bass with a steel fretboard which is pretty big on it's own - and it sounds great.
    Congrats!

    It's cool, it's like a combo of fretless and fretted sound. I guess with frets the string is directly on the steel as your finger is behind it, but in this case the bottom of the string is on steel and the top is slightly muted by your flesh.

    Find ich sehr interessant, da Ibanez Deutschland schreibt, dass sie keine Custom Instrumente anfertigen.
    Ich hätte nämlich schon seit einer Weile gerne einen BTB fretless 6-Saiter mit Nordstrand Pickups.

      Very true. I hope more companies make steel fingerboards though. They all sound a different and have different specs.

    Interesting. This is only the second fretless with a steel fingerboard after LeFay's that I have ever seen. And from what they sound like, stainless steel really seems to be the material to go for: it has got the right hardness _and_ elasticity for the right frequency of overtones: plenty of them, but not too brittle and shrill. Not to mention the _huge_ plus in durability and style. The only problem seems to be the glue between two fundamentally different materials to hold properly.
    But sorry to say: for a video about music equipment, the mic placement is really bad, and so is the volume balance between speech and music.

    • @LinusKlausenitzerBass
      @LinusKlausenitzerBass  Рік тому +2

      I understand what you mean. I recorded the spoken parts myself. I had to use the camera audio because the Mic made problems. As a musician where summer is always busy as hell I simply didn't have the time to record all over again. I can't be an expert on everything, haha. Sorry that the sound bothered you.
      This is what the lucier wrote about the glue by the way:
      "It is 1mm thick aircraft grade (means quality, but also stupidly expensive) stainless steel bent to match the original radius of the fretboard (now fingerboard). Fixed in place with the stickiest goo I know: polyurethane"

    This is so cool. I'm looking to do something like this with a 37" multiscale fretless 6 string. Trying to think of ways to modify the BTB806MS. Probably the cheapest route.
