Bass Collection SB611/SB460 Price Drop - *SOLD*
£500
Milton Keynes


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

A bit of a rare one here. It's an SGC Nanyo 4 string. I believe the model is SB460. These were redesignated to SB611 in the mid 90's. This one is a 1995 model. We have a slim 3 piece maple neck with ebony fretboard and a Zebrawood on Maple Body. High quality components including gold Gotoh Tuners and Bridge. It sports the original SGC Pickups. The original preamp was shot so it's been replaced with an Artec pre. Nice and light at 8lb on my bathroom scales.

 

This one is difficult to price so I'm going to plomp for £500 collected from sunny Milton Keynes. I can post at buyers cost and risk or potentially meet at a railway station on the West Coast Main Line between Euston and Crew/Wolves/Brum.

 

I bought this back in 2012 from Mansons in Exeter. It's got a few light marks but is in remarkably good nick for a 29 year old bass.

 

Dropping the price to £450

Chappells in MK used to have loads of these of I'd go in and slap every Saturday. My first brand of 'i want that' but never did. Great basses.

Wow, I have had the exact model and zebra wood facing but in 5-string for 31 years now, purchased from the Bass Centre in Wapping. It is super stable, and the sound is tight and great for slaps. The workmanship on this Japanese-built bass is fantastic and the quality of the thick, dense ebony used on the fretboard is in an entirely different league! The pick-ups are really fantastic, better than my EMGS on my 4-string bass, as they are strong, sounding from lows to mids to highs. It's great for recording and my bass will never be sold; it's that good. You get the picture. Its at a bargain price, in my opinion.
