Bought this recently.

It had a dead pickup. I'd been told preamp.

Bought a new preamp. Nothing.

Investigated pickups - was about to buy a reissue...

A chap had a 1985 Aria pickup in the same chassis, and I had it fitted.

It sounds brilliant - snappy aggressive and then a flick of the 6 way switch or tone control, or selector switch, it's about 15 basses in one.

In unbelievable condition really, 3 knocks in the lacquer - one on each "hip" and one on the lower horn at the rear.

Plays perfectly. Wearing extra slinkies.

I have a 1981 SB-700 I've just got a softer spot for as it was bought from the original owner who'd never played it.

I have a 1981 case to go with either. £50 gets it.

I'm selling as I have my old 64 jazz coming back and the wife wants some money in the savings...

Sorry for the Instagram links. I've closed my imgur account as apparently now it's yet another social network I don't need.

Original non functioning pickup will be included.

Weighs about 10lbs.

£25 shipping in UK

Will pack up for shipping outside of the UK but you'll have to arrange collection etc at your end.
