I have had GAS for a B302 for a while now, and have been keeping an eye out for one Stateside. This one came a couple of weeks ago, and she finally arrived. Fretless wasn't the plan, but the rare colour and condition sold me. The seller said it was in great condition, but that was an understatement. It is almost pristine, and has clearly worn flats forever, as the board is immaculate.
The case is hammered, which if original tells me the bass has been gigged heavily, but the owner(s) has really babied this bass. It's gorgeous.

WOW oh WOW oh WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not on here for ages, dropped in and saw this.
Where on earth did that come from?
Mint, or what??
The total irony is, I have literaly (with in the last 30 minutes) agreed a deal
on my beautiful black 301F.
I have given myself a good talking to and decided that for someone who has
only played a fretless live, a handful of times, I need to come to terms with the
fact that I am OK but not talented.
I am, however, keeping my fretted 301.
The comment a few posts up, about it being a favourite pick-up, I would certainly
put it towards the top of the tree - what a great sound.
If this white 302 had frets. . . . . . Oh No - hold me back.
I agree about the 201 and 202 - more of the norm, in terms of shape.
I would just love to have a go on one.
All the best to all of you - I must visit more often.
Cheers.
