rogerds Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) [size=5]probably more has been written about these basses than any other model![/size] [size=5]This is a black SB310 made by ’S’exton ‘G’uitar ‘C’ompany Nanyo in Japan[/size] [size=5]Serial number sticker is there but illegible - so i'll say - made in the 80's[/size] [size=5]4-string, lightweight, low action with a fast, straight neck, active P/J pickup arrangement with vol, blend, treble and bass controls, smooth Gotoh tuners[/size] [size=5]The SGC pickups give a wide tonal range[/size] [size=5]Small mark on the back of the neck between 12 / 13th fret - don’t notice it when you’re playing[/size] [size=5](well…. I don’t !)[/size] [size=5]Frets are in good condition with only minimal wear[/size] [size=5]I think its remarkable the consistency between different BC basses - I have four and they all feel very similar whereas every Precision I’ve picked up has felt unique[/size] [size=5]Trades? - i have too many basses - some have to go and don’t need any amps / cabs - but if you have an unloved cheap electric upright - perhaps Stagg or similar them maybe we could talk?[/size] [size=5]These usually sell for far less than they're worth - probably because the name has continued with Chinese made basses (which, although good value for the money, don't really compare with these 'made in japan' models[/size] [font=Helvetica][size=5]Any trial welcome (i’m in poole on the south coast)[/size][/font] [font=Helvetica][size=5]cant seem to be able to upload pics at the moment - but i will add them as soon as i'm able[/size][/font] [font=Helvetica][size=5]have i ?[/size][/font] [url="http://s801.photobucket.com/user/rogerds/media/bass%20coll.jpg.html"][/url][url="http://s801.photobucket.com/user/rogerds/media/bass%20coll%20body%2001.jpg.html"][/url][url="http://s801.photobucket.com/user/rogerds/media/bass%20coll%20pickups.jpg.html"][/url][url="http://s801.photobucket.com/user/rogerds/media/bass%20coll%20label.jpg.html"][/url][url="http://s801.photobucket.com/user/rogerds/media/bass%20coll%20back.jpg.html"][/url][url="http://s801.photobucket.com/user/rogerds/media/bass%20coll%20active.jpg.html"][/url][url="http://s801.photobucket.com/user/rogerds/media/bass%20collection%20collection.jpg.html"][/url] Edited July 14, 2017 by rogerds
BassBunny Posted January 8, 2017 Posted January 8, 2017 There's an SGC Nanyo Facebook page with people crying out for used Bass Collections. Might be worth joining and advertising there as well.
