00:00I took a guitar that already was like the one I was just playing and I had the
00:05frets removed for the top three strings. So I'm still getting used to this guitar
00:12but you see it's fretless here but it has frets here. So I'm able to play chords
00:17and things in tune very easily on the low strings but I'm still working on
00:22trying to get the intonation and everything working for the fretless
00:27strings. But here's just an example of the way this sounds seeing this you can
00:38actually get some weird little sounds where you pull off this fret onto the
00:41frontless part so it's a little bit tricky because it's not
00:56real slippery right now but
01:14but this kind of sound
01:21I like that kind of you know weird
01:31I'm looking for ways to get closer to that slide sound but play in a way that
01:37can also just be standard
01:39it's a little weird
