Fretless
  1. Y
Gorgeous 6 string neck through fretless. Purchased new from F bass in 1990. Specs as follows:

Flamed alder body wings
5 piece curly maple/wenge neck
marbled Ceylon ebony fingerboard
bone nut and saddle
9 coat tung oil finish
passive electronics (volume, volume, tone)
2 single coil pickups w/ dummy coils
34" scale
18 mm string spacing at bridge

This is a really great bass that I am only selling because I don't play much fretless any more. It's in very good shape for it's age. Some wear on the bridge pickup cover and a few little cable dings near the input jack, which I'll post photos of later.

Price does not include shipping, but I can ship it within the USA to avoid brokerage fees. Comes with a standard Fender style hardshell case.IMG_1199.jpgIMG_1198.jpgIMG_1196.JPGIMG_1197.jpgIMG_1195.jpg

Paypal is okay.

I'm interested in trading toward an MTD 634/635 fretted or possibly the right Fodera 5 or 6 string.

Thanks!
Brent

Another sexy, slinky, "vintage" F Bass. Beautiful. Mine was built within a couple years of this one and I love it. The thing that amazes me is how open the sound is. Just the right amount of focus and not too much "compression" in my opinion. The side-lines make it very easy to intonate as well.

If the buyer decides to go with a preamp after purchase then definitely get the F pre with this. You will be unstoppable and the "vintage" tone knob will blow your mind; it's perfect for putting grit into the fretless growl.

Best of luck to you, Brent, and to the lucky buyer.
