I have the fretless (cause I love the challenge! ) but there is also a fretted model. The scale is so ridiculously different from my other basses that it does take some getting used to but as you've heard, I think I've acclimated myself to it. Now it just feels ideal for my hands.

 

 

And here's a soundclick comparing the Kala and the Michael Kelly unplugged

Alan, that little uke bass is way cool looking.

I imagine it's a blast to play.

I'm having a blast with it!

 

 

However when our guitarist and I switched, he seemed a lot less comfortable with it!
