Time to sell a few basses to make room for a few more basses :)

Vox Standard bass, this one's a bit of a rare oddity - Made between 1982-1985, 1 precision style pickup near the bridge, volume/tone and series/parallel switch.
Condition.. well used! Quite a few dings on body and neck, but plays just fine. SOLD for £110

Hohner Professional PJ Fretless, Fender black nylon tapewound strings, mild fingerboard wear £90

A Yamaha RBX-170, Violin burst, P/J pups, very shallow scratches on the rear (barely visible) SOLD for £70

No-name fretless electro-acoustic, could be a 'Swift'... A bit buzzy round frets 1-4, otherwise it's fine. Good for noodling... SOLD for £20

Thanks for viewing, hope you've seen something you like.

(EDIT) VOX SHIPPING:

Approx. £20 in the UK

Approx. £80 in Europe, insured up to £200, 1 day delivery.

OR feel free to arrange your own courier, that's cool too!

I have Bass - sized boxes and many rolls of bubblewrap and parcel tape!

If you live in or around the M25 I'm happy to deliver it myself (for cost of petrol) or meet you somewhere in the middle.

Great collection, although you may want to seek advice re the VOX; I suspect its worth more than the £80 you are asking. (70/80's Jap crap)

good luck

Thanks Andy, have done some research and adjusted the price accordingly.

[quote name='BurritoBass' post='927299' date='Aug 17 2010, 10:34 AM']I used to own one of those Vox basses and it was great fun. You were right to put the price up, still a great deal for somebody[/quote]

Thanks Burrito, I agree it is great fun; it's got a lot of character. I just prefer my regular P bass, and it's a shame it's not getting played, which is the only reason for me selling it!

[quote name='TPJ' post='927489' date='Aug 17 2010, 12:59 PM']Are prices including P&P?[/quote]

No they're not, but I can say that I've looked up postage for the Vox and that would cost £20 by Parcelforce next day delivery.

A VOX std. bass was my first bass ever. :)
Still own it.
Among the basses with the lowest action I've ever owned and I've owned Fodera and KS's.
Very interesting sounding and versatile for a passive, one mic, bass. Got a great 80's feel to it.
Good luck with the sale!

Thanks JensWest!

Okay, the Yamaha is now sold. Who wants a slice of Vox history? Who's after a good P/J fretless? (Strung with flatwound nylon strings! I'm happy to put on 'normal' round-wounds if that's not your thing though)

Going on holiday type-bump...

I'll be away from tomorrow and will be back on the 29th (this Sunday) but I'll still be able to answer PMs and posts etc...

Bump for a 2 month old thread! These last 2 basses want to be played - I only pick them up once a fortnight to polish them...

Ditto! But there is a [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=108225"]cheaper vox standard[/url] on the forum at the moment, if you want it 'stripped', I quite like the look of it actually!
