afterthebath Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Did anyone notice during bumblefoots guitar solo he was playing a fretless guitar. At first I thought "holy crap, how does he sound so smooth?," then I realized there were no frets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJ88 Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 can someone explain to me what a fretless guitar is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAGE Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 (edited) can someone explain to me what a fretless guitar is? Yeah. It has no frets on it dude! You know, the little bars that go across ever inch of the guitar neck that allow you to pick out chords and notes. Bumblefoot has those memorized as most pro guitarists do.

bass71player Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 (edited) what's hard about fretless isn't memorizing the notes - it's not like the frets say what note they are. the guitar store i manage is one of the few vigier dealers in america and we had one of those fretlesses just like his, and the neck markers are the same as on a fretted. the hard part is staying in tune. frets are what actually sounds the notes allowing you some room to put your fingers, so you don't have to be exactly on the note. you have to be EXACTLY on the notes on a fretless - if you even roll your finger on its side either flat or sharp, the note sounds like shit. anyway... check out this link... it's a freak kitchen (matias is also insane on guitar) where bumblefoot does a guest solo on fretless... it's about halfway thru the song:http://www.freakkitchen.com/video/speak/ Edited May 22, 2006 by bass71player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
