Fretless Acoustic Guitar demo

I recently put this back together and slapped some strings on it to see what it would sound like, and here it is... sounds pretty good for a nylon string fretless in my opinion

very nice, genuine effort, in playing and production of the guitar.

was it difficult to turn it into a frettless? how did you do it?

[wbwillie]

@aaanijjer thanks man, no, it wasn't that difficult, all I had to do was pull the frets and use wood filler on the fingerboard, then sand it down. I'll put up a page sometime when I do another fretless conversion showing step by step how I do it, but until then, there's stuff even on youtube that shows how to do it, but I didn't think about it when I did this

I wouldn't mind having the tabs to this little piece. Sounded kind of Egyptian.

@ImmortalCadaver I might try to tab it sometime after I dig the guitar back out to put the piezo and jack in. Thing is, with fretless, it's kinda hard to tab since there's no real frets to rely on, it's mostly by feel
