This 5 string fretless recently went to Eric Schreiber of PA. It was originally built in 1999 for Henry Shmakov, who I traded for a newer fretted bass. I made some improvements to the battery compartment and dressed the fretboard while re-oiling the bass with some fresh tung oil. Eric sent me this email last week:
“Hi! I hope all is well with you. Just wanted to reach out and tell you that the bass is incredible! It’s been months and I still marvel at it each time I pick it up. The bass speaks to me … and feels like an extension of myself when playing it. It has been the source of much inspiration. I’ve been working on some new originals with it … and hope to record them ASAP. You are truly a master craftsman! Thanks again! Eric”
