That's a gorgeous sounding bass! Hard to tell there's a resonator in there until you hear it unplugged. An acoustic fretless bass that actually has some volume unplugged: just awesome.

If I was looking for a fretless or a different bass inwould consider this sounfs cool. I like how the bridge pickup gets the resonator tone, the bridge pickup has mote an electric fretless tone and how the blend gives a nice contrast between the 2.
