Update: I was back in Sam Ash yesterday and they still have the lefty fretless Kramer Pioneer available. I had some more time to check it over and take some crude cell phone pix.
They've got it listed as a "Pioneer El Bass". No such animal, AFAIK. It's likely a Pioneer Special. US made at the Neptune, NJ factory, D series serial #, placing the manufacture of the bass somewhere between '84-86. It's got a few bruises and dings, with the most egregious being a quarter sized chunk out of the finish down to the wood on the back lower heel (see pix). Playing-wise, it sounds/plays very similar to my Fender fretless P: a bit on the heavy side, but a really nice solid build/feel and that typical fretless P tone. The addition of the coil tap is a nice feature too for added tonal variation. Strings may looked misaligned in the photos, but I didn't notice anything when playing it (i.e. yanking G string off the fretboard), and I believe strings can be repositioned with this bridge fairly easily.
They're asking $249. You can contact them about it at: Sam Ash/Springfield: 1 (973) 376-5161.
I might pick it up if nobody else does.
