B-35BK-FL Acoustic Bass Series : Recomended fretless bass

I bought this bass to experiment with new sounds and gave me a surprise how well made it is for the price.

The stock strings are of good quality and the sound quality improves over time, however, since being roundwound nickels, they will eventually wear out the fretboard.

If you don't want to damage the fretboard, you can change them for a set of strings depending on the sound you are looking for:

- Chromes: flatwounds with a bright sound, mostly used.

- Black Nylon: tapewounds with a dark, warm sound, more like a double bass.

- White Nylon: tapewounds similar to black nylon but with a brighter sound.

Keep in mind that if you change the b string for a larger gauge, it will be necessary to widen the low B hole with a small file before placing it.

In general terms, this instrument is worth the investment.
