Tymon Kruidenier: feverless fretless from a devious Exivious

Tymon Kruidenier:
Just some random, self indulgent noodling on my new fretless Steinberger. Nothing fancy, just showcasing the voice of my new instrument.

After converting a couple of guitars to fretless guitars some years ago I realized I love the freedom and added expression you get with such instruments. This is where the idea came from to make my own custom fretless Steinberger. I collected the parts from eBay and other outlets, stripped the body and stained/oiled it myself. The final assembly and installation of the neck and sustainer hardware was done by a luthier named Fren Asken.

The sock around the end of the neck helps to mute the open strings, a problem that occurs really easily with a sustainer pickup.
