Beautiful! Didn't realize Maple necks were available back then, but I'm not that hip on Fender specifics... still a great looking bass... although the individual string tuning barrels are a bit strange to me in their positions under the strings...

Not to make light of your comment about the saddles, Ian, but it reminds me of something funny that happened to me.
I visited Ron Carter at his hotel while he was in Rochester once, to install a part on his upright bass. After the install, I
told him of some possible concerns that I read online as it was a new product back then. I said, "That there was some
concern expressed about intonation with the part."
He looks at me and said, "Really! It's a F#%&ing Fretless bass!"
His words, not mine. I couldn't stop laughing when he said that so matter of factly.

Thanks for that Bill! I thought the same thing; it's a Fretless bass - throw all norms out the window, so-to-speak! :lol:
