andy67 Posted April 13, 2022 Posted April 13, 2022 (edited) Hey folks, was in my local cash converters today on Leith Walk in Edinburgh. Sitting in the shop is a Yamaha BEX-4 in blue, cost £219.99. That is very cheap for a bass this rare so, thought I'd give someone the opportunity to snap it up. CC Edinburgh Contact: 0131-554-2266 Andy Edited April 13, 2022 by andy67 7 Quote
Maude Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 Pants! I'd definitely have that if I wasn't in Cornwall. Even more annoyingly my daughter flew up to Edinburgh for a concert last weekend. 😕 1 Quote

Maude Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 I might give them a call when they open and see what my options are. Did it look in reasonable condition? Quote

Maude Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 @andy67 you Sir are a legend. I think we're sorted but can't say at the mo, all will become apparent. 😁👍 2 Quote
Maude Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 The deed is done. It's been in the back of my mind to get a blue one for a while and at that price, we'll it would be rude not to. Comes with a hardcase too. They put it on the website for me so I could get it delivered. Didn't want to say just now in case someone else bought it. 😎👍 3 Quote

I woke up this morning with not even a thought of buying a new bass*, then by half ten one was in the bag. A good Friday indeed! 😄 *Well not this one anyway. 1 Quote
Maude Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 It's missing its battery cover apparently. I'll have to try and source one from somewhere. Quote
andy67 Posted April 15, 2022 Author Posted April 15, 2022 There is a BEX page on Facebook that may be of help but if all else fails, 3d print it 👍 1 Quote

But being Phyllis Offacle (who?), if you buy enough basses you'll have to encounter a pooper from time to time. I took a chance early in the day but Lady Luck was having a lie in. NBD thread imminent. Quote
