Yamaha 5 string - early RBX? - *SOLD* £200 Norwich

[andybassdoyle]

Lovely 90s Yamaha bought here earlier in the summer:

 

 

It is in absolutely GREAT condition for a bass of it's age. Everything works perfectly, I've set it up with a lowish action strung E-C. Does the Yamaha 'thing' really well imo - both pickups, bass/treble etc. It does not feel as refined as one of their pedigree models of course but the quality is still very good indeed. Lots of bang for buck. The nut is cut very helpfully so minimal tweaking to go back to B-G if required (in fact I could probably do this for you if you want). Basic gigbag is included.

 

Asking what I paid for it exclusive of any shipping costs. Very relaxed to keep it, just one of many basses that I'm not really playing and trying to make some room!

Very similar to my RBX775

Currently looking at 5s that can string E to C to. 

Yamaha punch way above their weight and price. Awesome basses.

RBX765A model 👍

I recognise this fine bass!
 

It’s a great player (in the right hands!) and is a lot of good quality bass for little money.

You should know matey!

Those are great. I would buy it just because, but it really should go to a loving home!

Very cool.

If pickups are same as my 775 (likely) then it's a weapon of a ting.

Yep - I had a 765A in Red years ago - mine was new in err 1997. Lovely thing.
