AndyTravis Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) Ok, weird one. great bass, plays perfectly well, and was rescued from death. a bit worn with chips and dents. Nothing terminal. Birdseye maple neck, light. the truss rod is broken, and it rattles. Doesn’t transfer into the bass and it plays really well with 40-100 strings on it. i was discussing a replacement truss with @Andyjr1515 who doesn’t think it will be a costly job. Theres also 1 white nylon washer missing off one of the tuners, but functionally fine. i got a new Yamaha control cavity cover too. nice bass, sounds good - body is too small for me. collection preferred, but can post it for about £10 edit - EMG’s now gone, will include a Yamaha bridge pickup in the price. Nice project for someone Edited August 9, 2019 by AndyTravis SOLD 1
hooky_lowdown Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 Nice bass, red knobs look freaking cool. But don't think it's a RBX 260, wrong body and headstock shape, as well as an extra jazz pup! 1

AndyTravis Posted June 25, 2019 Author Posted June 25, 2019 Aye. Seems straightforward enough. im offloading though before the move.

AndyTravis Posted June 27, 2019 Author Posted June 27, 2019 Pics of this lovely bit of maple I was talking about (ignore the god awful wallpaper - we’re moving next month 🤔)
AndyTravis Posted June 30, 2019 Author Posted June 30, 2019 Bump - think of it as a basically new EMG/PJ set for £100 and a £50 project bass. the EMG’s still come with a box and the preamp buffer etc in the box. 😉
AndyTravis Posted July 3, 2019 Author Posted July 3, 2019 Will entertain offers on this, got some bits I need to buy.
AndyTravis Posted July 23, 2019 Author Posted July 23, 2019 Offers of £100 plus postage will be listened to
