Yeah they do, they're actually single coils underneath the faux HB top!
The frets on mine have zero life left and the fretboard is flat (no radius).
If I get the frets done I might get the board radiused to 7.25"
My pups were really microphonic so I had them waxed and made a healthy change.
The neck radius is good, the frets are very vintage
So your fretboard has a radius?
I'm sure it does. I will have another look when I get home next week.
Mine is apparently built in 1975.
A sure cure for seasickness is to sit under a tree.
What to make of this...
Obv not original case but also I cant find any evidence of a 1978 p bass having a gold anodized guard so Im picking this is non original also.
Free shipping and pickup from Oamaru - feels scammy. Recent positive feedback though, hard to know.

After an ashdown ported (ideally m) 1x12
Other bass cabs considered
To match ashdown little bastard tube bass head
I climbed on the back of a giant albatross which flew through a crack in the cloud to a place where happiness reigned all year round and music played ever so loudly

My new rig got an airing on the weekend.
Ampeg V4B head and 2 Ampeg 112s
More than happy with it!

100w work well enough? That was always my trepidation with V4B's
It was more than enough, however I did bring my Bassman 500 along as a backup in case it was falling short. I swapped over to the Bassman for one set at a gig. Two quite different amp heads, although the overdrive channel on the Bassman can get quite close with a bit of gain. A lot of favourable comments at the gigs. I was using my old P Bass and my Ricky 4001, both sounded great
A few different gigs this next weekend so I'll be doing the same testing again.
