    I was thinking, since you're playing a fretless bass now, you should listen to and possibly start learning songs from the "Graceland" album, by Paul Simon! I think you'd love it! Paul Simon's main bass player on that album, Bakithi Kumalo (from South Africa), played some very cool bass lines on many of the songs!

      No it isn't. Not any more than any string section instrument of which none have frets. What they do have unlike violin. cello etc. is grooves where frets would be, that makes it just as easy to find where you have to be and w/o frets it's physically EASIER TO PLAY. If you don't have perfect pitch frets won't help much anyway. 🎸

      @cuda426hemi 6 місяців тому

      ​@@sarcasticguy4311 It's actually much harder to switch from 4 string to 5 string Bass then from frets to no frets. Why? Because not only does the music scale options open up by having 5 extra low notes but it totally messes up your physical ergonomics and the way you formerly played Bass; You must reexamine the board to integrate this new option. But as I said on fretless you still have grooves where the frets were (you feel them) and NO ergonomics change so it's not hard at all. I switched in minutes. But when I added 5 string it took days to get used to the new ergonomics and way of visualizing the board. 🎸
