Thanks to the fallen and all who serve(d)

I can blow money I don’t have on things I don’t need due to their bravery and courage.

I would love one of these minus the F hole. Such a beautiful design.

They are nice, but do not make one without the F hole or at least I have never seen one.

The alternate to your likes would be the Rob Allen, Here is the one I have.

Oh, I know it. I was thinking more hypothetically/with hope a Rob Allen is 100% on my shortlist, has been for almost a decade. Yours is beautiful!

One of my favorite P Basses I own is a My 1st Fender in 2018 for $500.00, Open Box from Musicians Friend. It's a 2018 MIM Fender Limited Edition Standard Telecaster® P Bass®. I added Mike Dirnt Loaded Pickguard and Babicz Bridge. The Mike Dirnt Vintage 59 pickup is Amazing compared to the cheap stock pickup w/ Ceramic bar magnets and wound to a weak 4.9 K. The 59 CS is wound to a warm 10.85 K. She is now Bad-Ass for less than $700 w/ Case.
The quality is amazing and the only upgrade it really needed was the pickup. Don't know why the stuck such a cheap/lame pickup in it. It was also odd that the truss rod adjusted at the headstock instead of the heal but it's a solid neck plus easy to adjust if needed. It sounds and plays with the best of them. It's a gem, IMO.

How do you find the Babicz bridge?

Many retailers here in the U.S. sell them. Babicz also sells them from their website.
Their website is under fullcontacthardware.com

Do not remember if I posted this here. My fretless basses.

look at front left bass - Peavey G Bass fretless. No such bass - is a conversion. The best I have ever seen.

 

[India_Sierra]

Oof, what I wouldn’t do for a pentabuzz. If you ever decide to unload one of those beauties please let me know!

I don't think the Pedulla Buzz series will ever be knocked off the top spot as the ultimate fretless bass.

Ditto!
