AndyTravis Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 (edited) Something quite surprising and exciting has fallen into my lap. I need to ensure there’s a bit of cash in the pot. Gutted it has to be this. It’s a wonderful bass. 1987/88 hardware is Gotoh and Yamaha bb3000 (Japan) - frets and Brass nut done by @Andyjr1515 honestly, if I didn’t have the bb1600, this is the best p/j bb I’ve had. Great condition, couple of tiny marks around the top edge, but looks ace. Will have to try and sort a case or bag. shipping possible at cost/risk. Edited November 27, 2021 by AndyTravis Withdrawn 7
Hacksawbob Posted October 8, 2021 Posted October 8, 2021 🤯 Looks better in real life than in the photos! GLWTS 1
AndyTravis Posted October 8, 2021 Author Posted October 8, 2021 Might be pulling this. 1. it’s a beauty. 2. My “something that fell in my lap” is a cockup. 1 2
AndyTravis Posted October 20, 2021 Author Posted October 20, 2021 Bump before I pull it. Will leave until weekend 👍🏼
dodgnofski Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 Excellent Basses. I have the Yammy 404 fretted and Fretless versions. Both sub 8lbs and are so easy to set up with a ridiculously low action - even the Fretless and have a great range of tones. This is a bargain and although you shouldn’t need it - GLWTS 👍👍 1 1
AndyTravis Posted October 25, 2021 Author Posted October 25, 2021 £275 collected in Manchester. Ive dipped into the Christmas present pot and need to top it up (the wife won’t stand for just a box of milk tray this year - don’t worry, the kids are sorted 😉) 1
AndyTravis Posted October 30, 2021 Author Posted October 30, 2021 More pics. If needs to be posted, can sort a bag/case. 1
AndyTravis Posted November 1, 2021 Author Posted November 1, 2021 Bump - will listen to offers on this. 👍🏼🥳 1
AndyTravis Posted November 9, 2021 Author Posted November 9, 2021 Will come in this lovely Gibson bag… £250 plus postage.
AndyTravis Posted November 10, 2021 Author Posted November 10, 2021 Weird this has sat about. Anyhow - now going on eBay. Would really rather this stayed in the BC community as I might regret this. Will sort a video when I get chance.
AndyTravis Posted November 16, 2021 Author Posted November 16, 2021 Recent purchases means this could do with going now. I’ve done the Andy Travis “it’s up for sale so it’s in its case” since starting the listing, so it’s ready to go, basically
AndyTravis Posted November 18, 2021 Author Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) £225 collected as a bass on its own £250 with Gibson padded case shipping extra. Could do with it gone, anything less and I’m keeping it Edited November 18, 2021 by AndyTravis
AndyTravis Posted November 22, 2021 Author Posted November 22, 2021 £200 bass only… after that I’m done. 1
AndyTravis Posted November 27, 2021 Author Posted November 27, 2021 Well, I’ve had it listed for a few weeks and shockingly it’s not gone. As I’m in the studio next month, I’m going to take it for a few specific tracks - it’s too good to just sell for selling’s sake. I might look into some EMG’s for it. Like a Spector BB…🤨 1
andy67 Posted November 27, 2021 Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) Given the prices of some BBs, you’re practically giving it away! It’s equal to or better than, a Mexican Fender. Edited November 27, 2021 by andy67

It’s equal to or better than, a Mexican Fender. Much better. And I’d spend more trying to get something of a similar quality with a reverse p/j 1
