WTB Maple unlined fretless neck I am building a tribute bass to my late great teacher Joe Noto. he played a 70's Fretless Precision with a all maple neck. Any brands considered, Mighty Might, All Parts Fender etc. Thanks, Scott |
I'm looking for the same thing, if anybody's selling. |
You can get one new from Warmoth for about $180. You would need to finish it yourself but they do make some pretty sold stuff. Or they can finish and it would be around $250. Either way good luck! I love my maple fretless precision.... :bassist: ![]() |
I'm considering it. though I'd really like a genuine Fender neck. |
Search tb I did a review of maple fretless. Good neck. |

I have one I bought in 1976 but had it reshaped to fit my old jazz bass. Haven't used it in 30+ years. I don't know if it would fit your bass right though. I might let it go for somewhere around $200. |

I would try USA Custom Guitars. Haven't ever asked them about a fretless but that must be something they can do. I would want to specify a quartersawn neck and board. Also worth putting a decent finish on the board. MAS makes a low viscosity marine epoxy that you can apply like a wiping finish. Three coats would give you an adequate build. (More than three coats if you're stringing up with rounds). |
Thanks for all the replies! I have found a neck, Wish I had seen the $ 200 before though. Who ever is next in line they can have it if they like. Thanks, Scott |
All right man, thanks. I'm jumping on the neck. |
