For sale FS:SX essex fretless Jazz old headstock

Man, if we weren't at the tail end of a remodel (therefore completely broke), I'd be on that like white on rice.

Anybody? Bueller?

I think this bass sounds killer. It's got that awesome jazz bass growl with all tone controls wide open or you can roll it off for a more mellow tone. The strings on it now are Dunlop Nickels and they sound great on it. I've had Rotosound rounds and D'Addario Chromes on it and they all sound killer.
As for the setup, it's got a great feel. Action is perfect, in my opinion.
Fretboard is Rosewood and has the usual wear that would show on a rosewood but nothing that cuts deep. I can't a good close up picture without it being blurry.

Here's more pix from when I stripped the orange tint.
There is a bit of the orange on the back where it wouldn't come off.

Is the neck oiled now or finished?

It had a poly finish under the orange tint.

Any electrical issues? Scratchy pots or jack?

Nope...all good.

Still available.

This bass is basically this exact bass except it's fretless, has black pickguard and I stripped the orange.
