andytoad Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I just bought this, thought it might be a good fixer upper. Anyone know the model and details? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F323696011636 Quote
BassBunny Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 There's a post called " Obscure Musical Backwaters" in the Bass Guitars section. It's all about SGC Nanyos. I'd ask there. Either way as an owner of 3 Bass Collections, that looks a nice one at a bargain price. Quote
BreadBin Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 If that pricelist has any relevance you got a real bargain. Quote
TheGreek Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 Translucent paint and bolt on neck - 320? However the 3 series basses normally have a PJ pup set up. £179 is a very reasonable price. It will feel like it cost more than that. Good buy. Quote
pete.young Posted February 22, 2019 Posted February 22, 2019 I would say based on the translucent finish and gold hardware that it's an SB325. 5 strings are normally JJ. Well done. 1 Quote
Roger2611 Posted February 23, 2019 Posted February 23, 2019 As Pete.young has said, I would say it is an SB325, You got it for a decent price, I had a look at it but am not playing 5 strings anymore Quote
Bassassin Posted February 23, 2019 Posted February 23, 2019 Bit of a steal. Don't really play 5ers - but at that price it would've been hard not to... Quote
andytoad Posted February 24, 2019 Author Posted February 24, 2019 Thanks all, looking forward to getting my mitts on it and giving it a clean up, better get a new knob too! Quote
andytoad Posted February 24, 2019 Author Posted February 24, 2019 Presume the serial number will give away the model? Quote

Nope, the serial number will give you the year of manufacture. 1st 2 digits are the year. I found a clue to 2 of mine in the heel pocket. When i removed the neck it had SB*** series stamped in it. The rest of the model would be down to active/passive etc. Quote

I have a spare old one, if you want one to match the tarnished look of the other 3! PM me your address if you want it. 2 Quote
andytoad Posted March 3, 2019 Author Posted March 3, 2019 Well, I’ve got it. It’s an active one, SB320 according to the back plate. Year 95, again, according to the backplate Quote
