Order Dean Acoustic-Electric Bass Fretless Satin Finish

Over All Rating Reviews :

This was a great price for a full-scale fretless bass. It plays fine and has a tuner built-in (make sure to turn it off when you're not using it or you'll kill the 9 volt battery). The sound is much much too much treble when playing this through an amplifier and every scratch and squeak is audible. For a cheap way to add a bass to an acoustic band or to practice playing fretless bass I would recommend this.

I've been playing bass since the sixties and grabbed this to explore fretless a little deeper while staying on a budget. The Dean A-EBF has been a genuine treat, right out of the box. The tone is rich everywhere on the neck and I'm pleased with the volume I can get without amplification (it arrives with round wound strings). I was also surprised at the variety of voice available through mid to high positions, especially from the middle strings where the fretboard delivers ripe, Pastorious like swells. If you're into slap beware as the accoustic body tends to capture and resonate both sides of the strings almost equally.
Obviously, transitioning away from frets requires a lot of concentration but also anticipate the extra travel distance to drive a string that doesn't stop on a bar. Its not about extra muscle, its about releasing the left fingers to jump a little higher, a little faster to find a neighboring open string. And don't look for any sympathy from this instrument's non-adjustable bridge.
The aesthetics are clean and honest, elegant actually, and the fit is easy though you may find yourself sitting with the body a little off your leg so you can play the elongated neck.
I wanted a lot from the Dean and I got more. While I purchased it for an introduction to accoustic/fretless I believe I have something that will last much, much longer.

Where To Buy Dean Acoustic-Electric Bass Fretless Satin Finish

I've been playing bass for 30 years. This Dean fretless bass guitar was beautiful looking in its construction (fit and finish) and it had a somewhat big, satisfying sound acoustically; certainly better than any Michael Kelly or Ibanez acoustic bass at twice the price or more. It also sounded good plugged in. The tuner worked fine. But if you can believe it, the strings on this fretless bass buzzed at the first and second fret positions on the A and E strings. Trussrod adjustments did not remedy the problem. This was because either the trussrod was not working/attached properly, or as I believe, the neck was warped in TWO places: one at the first and second fret area (improper planing of the neck) and the other where the neck/fretboard meets the guitar body. So I returned the product. What a shame - if the manufacturer had only spent a little more time on the quality of the neck this $250 instrument would be a steal! Incidently, the description of this guitar says the body has a "satin finish"; it is actually gloss. I returned the guitar.
