Can anyone help me find out more about my lovely black bass? I bought it in London around 1985 I think and it was heavily discounted as being shop soiled (2 little dinks on the back of the lower horn) and 'only' passive. I've only home recorded with it (normally I play fretless) and love the sound and feel when I need a versatile fretted sound. The front pickup is in an odd place for a Passion, nearer the neck. Under the rear one it says 23'05'84. There is no obvious serial number visible. Any more info would be hugely appreciated...

Can you post some pics? 

It seems to have a wooden thru neck, It's difficult to tell under the deep black finish. Thanks

I'm having trouble posting pictures on this site so here is a link to another forum about the bass...

That forum has some pictures I posted and some informed views..

This is a rare bird , produced at the very beginning of the Passion bass. I cannot say how many we made with pickups this way, probably less than 10.

Thank you for this info Patrice, and respect for continuing to make such wonderful instruments, if I have to sell this one day your info will help me a lot.
One more question, should there be a serial number anywhere, I can only see a date under the rear pickup when I slide it forward?
Best wishes!

The serial number should be near the bottom strap button and also in the treble pickup cavity.

Found the serial Number 026
