All joking aside, a fretless Precision with maple board is a very special bass, surprisingly gutsy and powerful by comparison with the more usual rosewood and even ebony boards 👍

This is not what I want to hear! Get thee behind me, satan and all that.  The unbranded maple, fretless in post 3 keeps looking at me.

On topic I just found this…..

 

Bought the neck on eBay where it was advertised as ‘luthier built’; I suspect it was one of the new Chinese CNC luthiers, but it’s playable and stable. I got the body from BC. Pocket is not standard Fender length (width and depth are fine) so for the dots to line up with the notes you need to have a bridge with decently long intonation screws or mount the bridge a little closer to the PUP. Or do what I did and play by ear! This is NOT Warmoth quality, but is a decent intro to fretless and looks f***ing cool built up. £100 as is or £150 as a bass with Squier PUP, circuit, and tuners and generic BBOT bridge. I’d digout a pickguard also 👍
