In my quest to get some space back in my home, I offer this thing to the market place. [color=#333333]Yamaha RBX 374 bass guitar, spares ,repair or project. [/color] [color=#333333]I bought this a while ago and the active circut and volume controls were shot. The passive pickups are wired to the jack plug and work fine. The volume and tone controls on the bass are not connected to the pickups and are there for looks only. [/color] [color=#333333]I fancied a fretless bass so I removed the frets from this bass. It is not a perfect job but has not damaged the rosewood board and could be easily re fretted if you have the skill. There is some paint chips on the body and at the top of the headstock.[/color] [color=#333333]There are some stickers on the back, one of which covers the hole where the battery box was for the active circut. If you like Motorhead, then you are sussed![/color] [color=#333333]The neck is nice and straight and the bass plays okay and has a nice set of Fender flatwound strings fitted which cost £20. The bass plays fine as it is if you are looking for a bit a of fretless blast. [/color] [color=#333333]The issues mentioned is reflected in the price and if you are handy at these things, for around £30 in parts you would have a nice playing bass. You can try the bass through my amp at my home in Paisley.[/color] [color=#333333]I would prefer collection or localish meet up but may be able to post if I don`t get anyone local. I would be removing the neck for shipping. I would need a few days to source some materials and would be looking around £15 to post, if it`s less, I will refund you.[/color] [color=#333333]***Please note, this is sold as a project/repair.***[/color] [size=4][attachment=175002:SAM_0754.JPG][/size][size=4][attachment=175003:SAM_0755.JPG][/size][size=4][attachment=175004:SAM_0757.JPG][/size][size=4][attachment=175005:SAM_0760.JPG][/size][size=4][attachment=175006:SAM_0758.JPG][/size][size=4][attachment=175007:SAM_0756.JPG][/size]

Here is a Squier Jazz body I got on here last year. The body has been "de glossed" it ain`t shiny no more, has a good few scratches and dings, could really do with a re finish. Fender would call it roadworn! [size=4]Under the neck plate, there is 2 other holes that I drilled to fit another neck as an experiment, they cannot be seen once the plate is attached. It fits a standard Fender size neck.[/size] It has a set of Duncan designed pickups on it and is wired up to the pots but although they work, the electrics would need work. I was going to bin the pickups but will leave them on and you can decide what to do with them, they are thrown in and are not to be considered to be in working order. It will come with a neck plate, BBOT bridge and a set of 5 Wilkinson tuners with bushes but no screws. £45 collected and another £10 if you want it posted. Paypal gift is ok.

Withdrawn for now.

Withdrawn for now. Might just keep it. Up for sale, straight trade or trade plus cash my way. Fender Mustang, MIM, Short scale, 38mm nut, bought by me new in 2013. The bass is in excellent condition with no dents, dings or scratches that I can see. It has been gigged but looked after. It weighs in at 9-9.5 pounds or 4kg. The bass is fitted with D`darrio half rounds and I will include the original Fender strings. It does not come with a case or bag but if posting, it will be sent in a full size hard case which is meant for protection only. The pickup wiring has been modified as described below by my guitar chap as the pickup is hot. It can be easily modified back to stock if required. I have nicked the text below from Telebass`s description as this is where the mod came from, so I hope you don`t mind TB. [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4]"To get the bite, you do a simple electrical mod. The TEB101 humbucker is a 4-wire jobbie. Under the plate is a taped pair, red and white. Solder red to ground and the white to the green wire on the volume pot. This puts the pickup into parallel mode, halving the impedance from 22k (HOT!) to around 11k, not too far off a standard P-bass pickup".[/size][/font][/color] The only issue is with the position of the bridge. It has been factory fitted about 1mm out of line with the string through holes. It does not effect the string alignment on the neck or the sound of the bass and is only noticeable very close up. Most of the early ones I have seen, have this issue and I have only mentioned it as I like to be as honest as possible. There is a photo showing this. The ones that have sold on here previously seem to go for around £500. I am looking for £460 posted to you, UK mainland only. I will knock something off the price for collection of course. Trade wise, I will do a straight swap for a P or Jazz Classic Series A GL tribute or US MM sub plus some cash my way A Squier CV or similar plus cash my way Or something else 4 string and fretted. The only thing I`m not interested trade wise is a Ibby SR or a Thunderbird and I don`t want to trade up the way. If we can do the deal face to face, all the better and I don`t mind travelling within reason. I am located in Paisley just outside of Glasgow. [attachment=173571:SAM_0738.JPG]
