miles'tone Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Up for sale is my SX SPB-62 P bass in a gorgeous shade of LPB. I bought it new only 2 months ago for £175 but I need to sell it to raise funds for something else that has come up. It is still as new and hasn't even left the house. It even has the plastic film still on the tort pickguard. I'm astonished at how good this bass is for the money. It's lightweight yet balances well, is very resonant when played acoustically and the fit and finish is spot on. It actually needed no setting up upon arrival and was even intonated. I bought it from Waltons in Ireland because I wanted the LPB finish and they were the only place I could find who sold the blue. Maybe they set up their basses prior to shipping? It arrived playing and feeling great anyway. Great giggable bass for very little outlay! £120 Edit: or nearest offer.

alyctes Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 That combo's one of the few places I like a tort pickguard. Elegant Good luck with your sale! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_5 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 SX basses punch well above their (acceptable) weight - someone should buy this post haste! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually the only SX I've ever seen in person but I'd read enough good things about them to take a punt. Glad I did but I've just bought a bass I've been after for a long time so unfortunately it has to go. Wish I could keep both basses though! Oh it's "acceptable weight" is around 8lbs. Very back friendly. Edited January 4, 2020 by miles'tone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealting Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 They’re great - a student of mine had one a few years ago and I was very impressed. They also make a medium scale with the same name (?!) so just wanted to check as I would have been all over that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
