Delberthot Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 (edited) If I've dated this correctly then I have a February 1999 Yamaha RBX 765A for sale I bought this during the bad old times of 2020 as I thought that it would be good to have a 5 string should the need arise for me to have one but it hasn't and I doubt it will so I am offering it up for sale. Condition is really good for a nearly 23 year old bass. There is light swirling across the back of the body and a small amout around a couple of the cotrol knobs that I could only see when I held it up to the light but there are no dings or dongs anywhere on the body. There's a tiny chip out of the paint on the headstock but a touch-up pen or even red nail varnish should hide that. The gold hardware is looking pretty good. There are a few shallow indentations that I can't feel while playing at the back of the neck around the 9th fret. The pictures make it look like it's bright red but it's a darker shade of translucent red. The last picture of the headstock is the closest to the actual colour Soundwise it's pretty snappy. I've had it doing a good impression of Flea & Rhino but there's plenty of scope for adjustment using the onboard EQ. It's nice and light, for me anyway. I don't have anything to measure it by but it was incredibly comfortable for the first set of a gig I took it out for just to try it out live. I have a functional gig bag to carry it around it which will be included and it has a new Duracell battery and D'addario Prosteels fitted. I would prefer pickup or meet up but I do have a box that I could package it up in if you're too far away to do either. I am looking for £225 or closest reasonable offer and would prefer bank transfer to avoid PainPal fees Although I've posted over 100 basses plus amps, cabs etc it has been while so I don't know how quickly they're delivering at the moment and the prices seem to have gone up since the last time. I normally use UPS and they are quoting me £40 for delivery. Any questions please fire away. And now for the pictures: Edited November 10, 2021 by Delberthot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealting Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 It may be worth seeing where you are located, since you would prefer pick up. Love these basses, good luck with the sale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreadBin Posted November 7, 2021 Share Posted November 7, 2021 Profile says Falkirk. I also love these - if I had to use only one of mine it'd be my identical spec bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that there used to be a field where you had to state your location before you could place your ads but I didn't see it when I did this one but I do have my location underneath my avatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
