I've been itching to get a fretless for some time. Finally went for this 15 year old USA Jazz.
It's had it's electronics changed out with Duncan STK hot stack pickups and an "E pro" active / passive system installed. Way more controls than I'd probably like or ever use, but there if I ever needed them. It's got a Badass bridge and Hipshot drop D on the E string tuner. It came with the white guard that fender used at the time ... had to change it to tortoise.
It's a really well made instrument with next to no wear and sounds fantastic. Neck is a treat to play. Fairly new to fretless but so far finding it pretty straightforward to intonate properly on this instrument, really enjoying the new sound palate. Aesthetically, wish it didn't have the fret line markers, though they are useful, particularly for big steps up the board. Perhaps if I really settle with it I'll get an un marked ebony boarded neck for it.
