FS: Yamaha Fretless Bass BLOWOUT!

electracoyote · #1 01-26-2011, 11:34 PM

This is making me emotional.

I hate selling perfectly good basses, but I just got a call from that "Hoarders" show, so I'm getting pro-active. These little guys were my first foray into the wonderful world of fretless. I quickly realized the joy and moved onward and upward, but you can't go wrong at this price point. Either would make a great starter fretless or an excellent backup to the more experienced player.

Fingerboards in excellent condition, just barely a hint of ghosting from the rounds. Those should come off and be replaced with flats IMHO.

Bass #1: SOLD! Yamaha RBX200F in white, what can I say, the pics tell the story. It comes in at a svelte 7 lbs. on the dot per my digital scale. Excellent shape functionally and cosmetically. Does it "mwahhh?" Oh yes. (I noticed it was missing a strap button on the upper horn, so I just put a new one on with felt. What a guy, right?)

$150.00 includes shipping CONUS. No international shipping. Upgrade to a decent hardshell for $50.00.

Bass #2: SOLD! Yamaha RBX250F in hot pink, again, the pics say it all except the weight which is an even more aerodynamic 6.6 lbs. on my digital scale. Excellent cosmetic and functional condish. It "mwahhs" like its white brother above.

$150.00 includes shipping CONUS. No international shipping. Upgrade to a decent hardshell for $50.00.

Both of these basses are a phenomenal bargain at this price. Very well-built, solid as rocks. The split-P pickup output is full and strong.

I'm an excellent packer, and I prefer UPS or FedEx (ground), your choice.

PayPal preferred, money order offers go on the back burner so I don't get my back burned, I'm sure you understand. Sorry, no trades, for sale only.

If we can work it so I don't have to absorb a bunch of international tariffs, taxes, etc., I might be able to swing it.

PM me and we'll discuss.

BTW, the pink one is sexy, a very cool and unique fretless indeed.

Two awesome Yamaha fretlesses still available for the fretless-curious and those needing a reliable #2.

electracoyote · #9 02-02-2011, 10:18 AM

Wow, I really thought I'd be doing some lucky TB'er a favor with a great deal on a solid entry-level fretless.

I may have to extend that favor to the eBay community.

BUMP!

electracoyote · #11 02-04-2011, 02:01 PM

I thought for sure someone could use a solid fretless at this price point. Hmmm...

Well, time to decide betwixt CL and eBay.

I'd rather go with a TB'er, so let me know if you're interested. Make me an offer!

electracoyote · #12 02-05-2011, 08:17 AM

Awww...

COME ON!

These are perfectly good basses. NO ONE needs a solid entry-level fretless?

Make me an offer on the pair. Make me an offer of any kind. Squirrel meat, roller skate key collection, treasure map, SOMETHING!

Bump for a great guy to work with. These originally tempted me to wanna get my Deftones-White Pony on. But my jaw dropped when I saw the Stagg Jag.
How much to throw the Pink one into the deal, Johnny?

White one still available?

I appreciate the endorsement. I can find nothing wrong with these basses, especially at this price. Incredible value, perfect for the fretless-curious or experienced player needing a solid #2.
