Done!

Let's call it 10 for 10.

That said, if we all put another tenner in the kitty, we'll reach another level. Who's in ?

After searching again, I can confirm it's a factory early fretless Passion II (introduced in 1985) with a graphite neck and a phenolic fingerboard as, like all the early ones, it has a real bone nut, no dots on the front and white fret lines when the fretted versions of that period had no front dots too and a zero fret, so a converted one would still have it or something even weird(er) with a huge nut... Check this review (by the great Tony Bacon) from ... 1985, everything matches: https://www.muzines.co.uk/articles/vigier-passion-bass/11761 Remember that the Passion (introduced in 1983) came after the Arpège (introduced in 1980) and was thought differently, but here is the rare beast @itu, a 1983 Passion I fretless with a Delta Metal fingerboard and a graphite neck without truss rod, of course: https://www.basscentre.com.au/products/vigier-passion-fretless-1983 You can even compare this Passion II fretless with its fretted sibling here: https://www.leboncoin.fr/vi/2887220561.htm#xtor=ES-3999-[MYSRCH] Hope all this helps. 😉 GLWYS!

Two years too late. 😉

*Derail ON* My Arpège bears serial number 005, is from February 1981 and I even have the original invoice of the first owner (I was the second owner) who bought it brand new on the 2nd of September 1981... What does the dating website says: Try to find mine! @itu *Derail OFF*

The Vigier website is too often totally wrong, that's quite amazing to have put that online without really double checking all these serial numbers recouping themselves and their correct item designation being completely wrong. 🤦 First generation fretless Delta Metal are almost as rare as hence teeth and most of them if not all were Arpège, I owned one and it took me years to find it, but a very good friend of mine wanted it so badly that I sold it to him...

End of derailing @Steve1967 😉 GLWYS.
