I've played a few dozen more recent ones and I have not liked the feel very much. They can be made to play very well, but they don't ring the same or feel comfortable to me. I've been a flipflopper on this, liking the ones I owned but none of the others. The '94 bass is quite good, but not exactly what I want out of a fretless. It will be going, but I did buy a set of MFD pickups to build my next fretless.

I did not vote.
