My buddy’s mom passed a couple weeks ago and he has been cleyout the house. He came across his old 1990’s Yamaha and asked if I wanted it. The answer, of course, was yes. I didn’t know what to expect and was pleasantly surprised to see a Yamaha RBX in very good shape. Needs some cleaning and new...

Looks great!!!

I don't even know if my 400RB has any bent fins or not. I've seen plenty with a bent one, no big deal. If it was broken off or cracked I'd be concerned.

Just saw the sad news. He was a legend for sure. My father in-law recently passed at 72. Seems too young.

Matte Black is always the right answer.

That’s super cool! Saw one on IG the other day for the first time.

I was this many days old when I learned this is where Biggy got the sample for NOTORIOUS B.I.G. I love both versions!

I want one!

Looks awesome. Definitely an improvement over the original.

Our old house had nice old pine 2x4's. Sounds like the perfect wood for an old school P or tele. Pretty sure the original telecasters were pine, so you're in good company.

Unless the Marvel is $25 I'd pass. The Ibanez TMB30 is a very well-made instrument. I have a TMB100 and it's really nice. I'm actually thinking of changing it to passive like the TMB30. The Ibanez doesn't need to be a "starter" bass, it's a good bass for anyone.

Too many knobs for me. I'd take VVT or a setup like the Fender JB Special.

G&L and EBMM do the best sparkle finishes. I personally love them.

I am excited about this bass, just wish it was passive. Maybe they’ll make more Charvel bass options in the future. Looks like a decent value for the money.

Shipping times are REALLY BAD right now. It's across the board with USPS, UPS, FedEx, and LTL. I deal with this daily at work. Covid, bad weather, and poor management are all factors. I would be willing to bet it shows up at some point.
