1978 Fender Precision fretless

[barks]

Just a feeler for now but I may be looking to sell my 78 Fender P fretless. (The one on the left in the photos.)

Pickups are EMGs (P and J that Jon Shuker installed for me).

Would be looking to get about £1300 for it but would consider offers.
Not interested in any trades - I have too many basses already and need the space !

+1 .
Is that an ebony 'board?

[shizznit]

I had a 76' fretless P loaded with EMG's too! Lovely instrument. Mine had a rosewood fingerboard, so I assume yours is too?

I can confirm that the board is ebony rather than rosewood.
As far as I can tell the bass would have originally been manufactured as a fretted. You can still see where the original fretmarker dots on the neck edge were before the conversion to fretless was done. I always presumed that the ebony board was added at that time.
The EMG P pickup was already in place when I bought it and the EMG J pickup was added by Jon Shuker around 1999 approx.
Tuners look to be originals.
