    The thing is you could buy a bass ten times more expensive, and you won't sound ten times better...

    Absolutely killer playing, sir -- it's rare to hear that kind of virtuosity on the fretless here on RUclips. Exceptional. And any Harley Benton review I've seen has been ecstatic with praise for the instruments. This bass sounds ridiculously good. Shaking my head at their prices.

    You got the groove.
    (Fretless Bass is a must for me.
    When it hits you, you don't want to play fretted basses anymore.)

    Outstanding! I have listened to this solo at least 10-times and I continue to press replay! I started learning bass 4-years ago after playing keyboard 40-yrs. The fretless sound (especially with smooth jazz and jazz fusion) is what tugs at my heart. I may not ever sound this good, but you give me a wonderful goal to strive for--your intonation and nuances are spot-on. Thanks for sharing. Peace.
