FS/FT: Yamaha RBX5 Pearl White w/ gold hardware

Early 90's (I think) RBX5. Bass is in good condition, with only one tiny paint nick near the arm relief, and a small chip in the nut at the b string. Intonation and playability aren't affected, as far as I can tell. String spacing is extremely tight - it seems like they put 5 strings on a 4-string neck. Great if your into that, but its just too narrow for me. I just put new strings on it as well. Also included is a hard case. I'm pretty sure the case is original as well, but I'm not 100%. Asking $270, shipping not included.

That's nice. But I'd be all thumbs. It's probably hard to play for someone with gigantic sausage fingers like me.

All thumbs?? That would make for some SERIOUS slappin'. Mr. Wooten better watch out! But seriously, I have the same problem with this bass, which is why I'm getting rid of it. This bass would be absolutely perfect for someone with small hands and/or short fingers who wanted the low-B experience.

Thanks, methodis. The pictures really don't do this color justice. Its a very heavy pearl white, almost like the pearl white that Lexus uses.
