Available in a host of striking finishes, tonewood formats and time-proven hardware, the classic Vintage VJ74, with its reputation for exceptional tone and playability, has proven itself time and time again, as one of the finest workhorse 4 string bass guitars available, in both the studio and on the live circuit.

A fine example and a challenge for the highly skilled team of Vintage luthiers on how to actually improve this popular model. They were indeed hard pressed, finally deciding to transform this stunning model into a ProShop Fretless Bass.

Whilst maintaining the beautiful high gloss 3-tone Sunburst finish and hard rock maple neck, its within the fingerboard that the team have excelled, with the skilled removal of all 20 frets and the inclusion of inlaid position markers, for a super smooth playing surface.

Needless to say, with a pair of highly responsive Wilkinson WOJB pickups in the neck and bridge positions, these single coils, with ultimate clarity and articulation, effortlessly capture the smooth warm slides, vibrato techniques and distinct vocal qualities associated with fretless bass guitars.

Seen here, with the exquisite Vintage VJ74 ProShop Fretless Bass, its within the finest details that have earned the Vintage ProShop Series guitars and basses, respect from players around the world.
