Yamaha RBX1000

 

Great high-end model from the RBX range. According to the serial explanation of Yamaha, this bass was made between 1986-1989.

This RBX1000 is an active bass and has a 2eq preamp along with a vol and pan control. It is finished in a pretty trans black, which makes the (ash?) grain show through nicely. It's a pretty light bass, my kitchen scale sets it at 3,44 kilo's. So it's a comfortable bass to play for longer sets or rehears. Tonewise it's a versatile bass, and sounds serious. I like it especially with bass and treble boosted a lot for a deep thunderous modern sound.

Cosmetically this bass is in "road worn" condition. It has a lot of scratches, dents and a few chips of paint missing... Technically the bass is all good. All electronics and hardware work like they should, the neck is straight and adjustable, the frets are still pretty good and allow low action. The bass has been set up with sadowsky strings.

 

All in all this is a high quality, well used bass at a decent price.

 

Low price €300. Don't wait for price drops, there won't be any ;).

 

The bass is located in the Netherlands, but I am happy to ship within the EU at buyers risk.
