I bought a fretless bass about 4 months ago and am really enjoying it and implemeting it in worship.

The reason I like the fretless (I tried violin for a few month) :

My hands are BIG and the fretless has much more room for adjustment.

The range is lower


Make no mistake playing a fretless is still hard and requires at least twice as much concentration as a normal instrument but the sounds are unique:

I usually use the fretless for slower songs.

Jeremiah 31:35-37:

This is what the Lord says, he who appoints the sun to shine by day, who decrees the moon and stars to shine by night, who stirs up the sea so that the waves roar -- the Lord Almighty is his name: "Only if these decrees vanish from my sight," declares the Lord, "will the descendants of Israel ever cease to be a nation before me." This is what the Lord says: "Only if the heavens above can be measured and the foundations of the earth below be searched out will I reject all the descendants of Israel because of all they have done," declares the Lord.
