About Us

I am glad you chose to stop by. This website is here for the fretless bass connoisseur. As a lifetime bass player, and a six-string fretless devotee since the early 90s, my passion and interest in this area drove me to provide this resource for the underserved fretless community. So welcome, and come on in! Tommy Landry
