My newest is a couple of months old:

Love the grain coming through the colour, very nice. Sound mean?
 
The one on the left is brand new and her sister (1yr old) to the right. I've posted elsewhere so I don't want to wear out my welcome :-)

It had serious problems. I ended up having to
defrett and added an extra volume, as well
as other fixes. Non of which cost any money.

Is that right? It cost you $90? In any case, very nice.
 
Just pieced this together. MIJ 98 neck and a 02 MIJ body.
I'm not a flashy kinda guy - but this one grew on me.

nice! 60's spacing and stack knobs with a 70's neck. I'm not a jazz guy, but that's the best of both worlds, IMO.

I found this on ebay not too long ago, sold a coupla things, called the seller and made a off-site deal. It's an Ibanez '77 silver series fretless precision. Weight is under 8 lbs. I still haven't played it yet, but I've been gassing for a maple board fretless precision, and I got this for less than 30% of a vintage fender.

I might switch the pickguard to tort and add a bridge cover.
 
Just got this MIJ E-Series P off evilbay last week.
Not a ding on it. Must of kept it in the case for the last 25 or so years.
I've been watch for this one too long - I should have been practising!!

Perfect neck.

havent had time to take some good shots - this is the EBay JPG.
