For Sale: Yamaha SLB200 EUB with carry case and stand - *SOLD*
£2100


Recommended Posts

For sale is a Yamaha SLB200 EUB, complete with carry case, the stand (bought at additional cost) and additional extension frame that give more a DB-sized body curve for supporting the bass against the body (costs £132 new).

 

The bass is in overall excellent condition (there are a few very small marks) and I have fitted anti-slip tape to the body extension to improve grip. This can be easily removed though. It plays beautifully and is easily the best EUB I've played in terms of similarity to an acoustic DB and overall quality. After discussions with my band though, I'll be using a DB in future and would like to upgrade my current one. 
 

From the Yamaha website:

 

Yamaha's Silent Bass series feature a body and pickup systems designed to bring out the best tone from each instrument. The SLB200 is a performance-oriented bass designed with a light and compact body that makes transport to and from the gig a breeze. The hollow body design and special internally mounted pickup system deliver pizzicatos which are solid, rich, and realistic, and fit naturally into any jazz or pop setting. Built-in electronics offer plug and play simplicity and the detachable frame gives the instrument a feel and playability close to that of an acoustic bass.

 

I'm looking for £2,100 either picked up from near Monmouth or a meet up within an hour is Monmouth. I am willing to post for cost too.

Wow, these do not come up often. i had a real tussle deciding between this and the SLB-100, the latter only won because not gigging all that often I prefer the greater length of the 100, and as I use a mag PUP at the end of the fingerboard anyway, the better core tone of the 200 is also less of an issue. But if I were gigging a more and if I were looking for a more DB-consistent tone, I'd certainly be looking at this; unusually for an EUB it produce acoustic tone, it's small and packs away into a case not much bigger than the average mic stand case, yet still feels like a DB to play. And it's Yamaha so you know you're getting extraordinary build quality and functionality. These are used by quite a few gigging pros for these very reasons. Bet you're a bit sad to see it go Nick?
