    Just go buy stuff: pickups, bridge, tuners, whatever whizbang trips your trigger.

    You want to upgrade to a new bass or upgrade the parts on your existing bass?

    If you were my student I would suggest a new bass before modding. The RBX are already fairly solid for their price point. You will end up putting $250 in parts and pieces to still have a $100 guitar. Not a good investment in my books.

    My first bass was an RBX170. As Diabolous mentioned, they're already pretty solid. What don't you like about it?

    'Upgrading' w/o a specific purpose may not really be upgrading.
    As mentioned prev'ly twice- "they're already pretty solid. What don't you like about it?"?
