Who Loves Block Inlay Fretboards ?
I do…!
Except that I believe the k e bass I have with Block Inalys has fake inlays…I think they are just stickers under the poly finish…

But ai hope that one day soon, I will be able to mitigate that with some real Pearl Block inlays…

Thanks. It's an MIJ, and I bought it immediately, when I saw it on eBay.

The finish reminded me of the 1981 Precision I passed on, when the Guitar Center salesgeek jerked me around on the price.
Looks a lot like the cherryburst on my G&L L-2500, which I love the look of (it also has a matching headstock). But, it has a markerless fretboard, so I probably shouldn’t post such an abomination in this thread of lovely blocked basses. :D
 
I love them when they contrast with the finger board. - especially black on Maple but I have never understood white blocks on Maple. You (almost?)never see black blocks on Rosewood because you wouldn't see them. White blocks on Maple would bother me on a low light gig.
