fluffo Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) Yamaha RBX775 5 string bass in condition, nut has a few marks here and there, plays and sounds great. I've used this for heavey rock right through to working in my ska band aswell as the covers band. It's never let me down and as I have only the one of these left but has to go. Do not compare this to the RBX 375, they are no where near as good as these and as they have been discontinued they don't come up to often. The dots on the fret board are stick on glow in the dark ones that can easily be removed, they didn't have markers on them from production and it caught me out a few times, but as I said they can be removed in 5 minutes. I will accept £150 or offers very close to this and it's worth every penny. Postage will be about £25 thats fully insured but you are welcome to come in and try it. Either contact me via PM or call on 07956 964156 [attachment=81355:30052011840.JPG] [attachment=81354:30052011842.JPG] [attachment=81814:05062011853.JPG] [attachment=81823:05062011858.JPG] [attachment=81816:05062011855.JPG] [attachment=81815:05062011854.JPG] [attachment=81819:05062011856.JPG] Edited June 5, 2011 by fluffo
Kongo Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 Ah these have vanished off the planet it seems! Let's not forget the 35" scale length and if I remember, the "Slap Switch"? Nice and aggressive bass. Steal at that price too.
jhk Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 I have one of these and they really are a great all round bass .......................... and at that price very well worth look!!!
LITTLEWING Posted May 29, 2011 Posted May 29, 2011 (edited) Yeah, must say these are the bee's knees, grab it while it's hot. I've had mine a while and it makes my 375 feel cheap and nasty. Worth every penny. Edited May 29, 2011 by LITTLEWING

Rich Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 I've got a defretted RBX765A and can confirm that they make great fretless basses. This looks like a bargain

This looks like a bargain [/quote] Always did wonder. Alas, if I had space or the funds I'd snap one of these up, maybe the dented one over the other, cause I like a bit o' scarring on my instruments (accidental of course). Do love good quality Yammies.
jhk Posted June 2, 2011 Posted June 2, 2011 `cant believe they`ve not sold .............................. bang tidy basses!!!
