Heavily modded (obviously) 76 Precision I bought new when I was 16. Has an 83 neck I put on a couple years ago (third one), Fender 62 CS P from the early 2000's and DiMarzio Ultrajazz, separate tone/vol, and Schaller bridge. And I did the pickguard like that decades ago long before I ever heard of a Marcus Miller ;)
 
Wow I forgot about this thread!
I guess I should throw this one up here.

My frankensteined p-bass ... with a mm pickup, a Rickenbacker pickup and a 4 band Audere preamp. I had to put a small piece of tort on it to cover some holes that were no longer used in the current configuration.

The bridge pickup has a toggle for single / parallel / series operation. This bass has gone through quite a few different pickup and electronic configurations.
