[color="#4B0082"][size=3][font="Arial"]Hello Graeme,

I have to let go my three Aria and I would like to see them in the right hands. I don't know if you might be interested yourself or maybe know people who are, but here they are.

[attachment=83683:Julien.jpg]

There is from left to right: SB900 fretless "walnut" finish, SB900 "oak" finish, SB700 fretless (lacquered fretboard) "walnut". They are all from 1980 and in perfect working condition, few dings on the bottom side and few scratches at the back for the fretted one. The two SB900 have been rewired with a Gibson style 3-position lever and a volume has been replaced by a varitone from BigDGuitars. The 900 FL also has new mini switches.

They have all been looked after and they are ready to play as I used them pretty much every day of the week until two weeks ago. I'm looking to sell them around £450, which seems to be an acceptable price considering what I could see on eBay lately. If you are not too busy, please pass the word along.

Thanks and regards,
Julien[/font][/size][/color]

Please [color="#0000FF"][[email protected]]email Julien[/email][/color] directly if you are interested. He will post to the UK.

Thanks Graeme, these are actually my basses. Just registered on the forum yesterday so I will go introduce myself first, as it is bad form to have only one post sell gear.

I can provide more pictures of any of the 3 basses, they are just sitting next to me.

I have been asked in MP for more pictures of the two SB900s so here they are:

Hehe! I wish I could afford it, but alas :)

Good luck with the sales dude, I'm most jealous of whoever gets these.

It's a heartbreaker but the fretted SB900 is continuing its journey: from Japan to Czech Republic via France and Luxembourg.
Can I get a round of applause for the new owner bassbasy ? :)

The two fretless are still there. I will do a special offer for whoever takes the two of them.

Bump ! The fretless SB900 is still there. I will edit my first post now.
Edit: well, can't do that as Graeme posted for me :)

It is the one on the left on my couch:
