FT/FS Lots of Basses!!

[jmattbassplaya]

***The absolute last day I can ship is this coming Monday (the 10th). If you've been holding off on making an offer then do so now because it won't be going anywhere for a few months after then. These Squiers don't pop up too often so get yours today!***

Hey guys,


I have a few basses I'm looking to either sell or trade. I'd like to keep all deals local to avoid shipping costs, but I am willing to drive an hour in any direction from Memphis or Knoxville to meet up with someone. If you're not local, however, and would still like one of the basses, then shoot me a PM and I'll try to work something out with you.

**EDIT** After a huge influx of PMs, I have discovered that there are two very important points I forgot to mention in the OP that I'll address here.

1. I won't ship international. Sorry guys.
2. Again, I'd much rather all transactions be local. As such, I'm going to ask any buyer who isn't local to either pay or split shipping costs with me.


As far as trades are concerned, I'm currently looking for pedals, powered boards, power supplies, and other things along those lines. Here are somethings I'd specifically be interested in:

- Big Muff (Russian Black)
- Boss ODB-3
- Boss LS-2
- VL PP2
- TC Nova Delay
- Sansamp GT2
- Volume Pedal



1. Yamaha RBX775 (5 string) - [B]$180 shipped[/b] Great sound, super low action, and very well built. That said, it's a bit beat up, but it would make a great starter or backup bass for anyone needing a 5er for cheap. Sold!



2. Squier VM Fretless Jazz - $215 Shipped and Insured This bass is great for the beginner to intermediate level fretless player. It really nails the Jaco sound, and it weighs in at only 8lbs! Don't let the Squier name fool you - this bass is great!



3. Epiphone Viola - $230 Strung with a set of Pyramid Flats, this bass has a great Beatles/early vintage tone. It's also really lightweight, and it has a look that is sure to turn heads! I've decided that I like this bass too much to give it up



4. Sterling by MusicMan Ray34 - $500 Basically mint condition. I bought this as a backup to my US StingRay, but don't need it anymore. If you want a StingRay for a third of the price then this is what you want! It sounds identical to my US Ray Gone! Thanks Jeff!



5. Warwick Corvette Std 5 (passive) - Made in Germany, this is one of finest jazz styled basses that I have ever played. With a swamp ash body, this bass has a very burpy, yet punchy and defined tone. The B string is fantastic, and the neck is very comfortable. Comes with Rock Bag and bees wax. I'm gonna hold on to this one for now, too.




PM me if you have any questions!


Thanks for the look!

That's how they are often described, however, I couldn't tell you the exact specs.

I don't know the proper name for it, but it's a blue metallic color. The picture makes it look like it has purple in it, when it really doesn't. Google image search Yamaha RBX 775 and it'll bring up a lot of pictures of the bass.

Thanks!

Good luck with the selling/trading, you;ve got some nice stuff on hand.

I tried a Sterling Ray 34 at GC over the weekend and it's a killer bass ! This is a great deal ! The body is swamp ash and sounds way better than the SB-14 which is a basswood body. I'd buy this one, but I own a maple x 3 Ray 34.

Thanks for the kind words!

It really is an amazing bass. I'd hate to let it go, but it really is almost exactly like my US StingRay, and as such it's kinda redundant to keep it Plus, I'm hoping to use the funds to buy myself a nice Fender P!

[jmattbassplaya]

Bump!

I'd really like to trade either my Ray34 or Corvette for a Fender RW Precision in burst.

Everything is still here and waiting for a new home!

(I know you are selling all of these basses because they are no match for the BONGO!!! )

[jmattbassplaya]

I'm really surprised that I've had almost zero interest in the Squier

Here's hoping I can move that and the Ray34 before Thanksgiving!

That ray is coming my way

Yes sir, it is!

The Ray34 and Yamaha are on hold as of now, but everything else is still up for grabs. I'll be able to post more pics of any bass come Tuesday/Wednesday of next week.

Now let's see if I can move that Squier
