Early Vigier Passions, fretted and delta metal fretless

I'm not sure if this is against forum rules so moderator please feel free to move or remove as appropriate. I have no commercial connection with Bass Direct.

I've put my 1984 black Passion (ser. 026) up for commision sale at 'Bass Direct' in the UK and I noticed they also had a matching black delta metal fretless (ser. 004) for sale.

They look fantastic side by side and both have the very early wider pickup positions.

Wow! I had an '87 Passion with woven graphite neck that served me well for years, but this is a different animal altogether -- and it's black! What a rarity. If I had the cash for this one and the fretless, I'd be severely tempted, but I'm saving for a new custom build at the moment. Good luck with the sale!

Like the Douglas Adams spaceship 'Disaster Area'....It's black, with black pickups, a black neck and black controls on a black surface!
