Ideally something I can view / collect so Yorkshire area or North East. 

Max budget £200 but I'd rather it were less.

WHY?

    I've got 2 for sale under that price
    The Bigsby was the first successful design of what is now called a whammy bar or tremolo arm, although vibrato is the technically correct term for the musical effect it produces. In standard usage, tremolo is a rapid fluctuation of the volume of a note, while vibrato is a fluctuation in pitch. The origin of this nonstandard usage of the term by electric guitarists is attributed to Leo Fender, who also used the term “vibrato” to refer to what is really a tremolo effect.

    I think you might be a tad far away.

    Hey @Legionreturns I have a Yamaha RBX374 (I think).

    It’s been refinished and currently has a problem with the battery shorting out somewhere (I haven’t looked at the issue yet but I’m not great at electronics) but it plays nicely and sounds good when the battery isn’t dead!

    You can have it for £70 if that’s any good to you?

    That's a great price...Not sure I'd know where to start with the electronics though haha. Might see if Keith Dawson can give me a low down...

    I will try and take a look in the next few days and see if I can sort it.
    Ive had it sat around for about a year but not bothered trying to fix it because I don’t play bass.

    But yes, I’m sure Keith could sort it out.
