The Tony Franklin Fretless Precision Bass delivers his style and powerful elastic tone in a model with classic looks and personalized Franklin features including a modern C-shaped maple neck with an unfretted ebony fingerboard, an American Series Precision Bass neck pickup, a Dimarzio Model J™ bridge pickup , and a drop-D E-string tuner.
