Block inlays (pearloid or black) were primarily used on Jazz basses in the late sixties thru the seventies, after that, Jazz basses had dot markers. I have never seen a P-bass with block inlays that came from the Fender Factory.

If you really like inlays, a professional luthier can add them to your neck.

They did not. Fender Japan has made a Reissue 70s P-bass with block inlays. I'm not sure what bass they were reissuing since it wasn't an option.
