Fionn Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 (edited) This doesn't add up. The seller (new seller/no feedback) has presented 2 photos. One is a stock photo of a SB1000JT (black hardware), The other is a stock photo of a SB1000 re-issue (gold plated hardware). In his very brief description he says the bass is c.1980, mint, plays as new, and he is the only owner. When someone asks about the actual colour of the hardware on the bass being sold he says the tuners are gold plated. This wasn't the case on early SB's, they were chrome. There are 22 bids on this bass thus far. Seems slightly odd to me. not very confidence-inspiring ...

Bloodaxe Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 He's also got a rare-as-hen's-teeth SBR-150 up for grabs: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Aria-SBR-150-/141037568961?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item20d67e83c1 Something about those photos seems familiar… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The photo (the body only one) of the SB1000 was on a thread on TalkBass in 2007. I can add the link if anyone wants it.
