***************

There seems to be a growing interest in fretless guitars, I've been idly
thinking about building an electric fretless for slide. This gives you an
idea of its potential, even if you don't like the style of music:

Does that guitar have a metal fretboard? That

Noicely nicely.

I've not read all about it, but I did read a reference to at least some
of his guitars having polished glass fingerboards.

Me too. I spot-listened and didn't here anything noteworthy in this regard.

I try not to fret too much when I play guitar (or mandolin) but other
people fret a lot when they hear me.
