Anyone know how much or how many percent does Singapore Custom charge for importing a Guitar (electric bass actually), through freight (most likely plane)?

Unless you bring in liquor, ciggarettes, petrol, cars, etc.
Guitar is not one of those items.

So, it will be.
USD$710 x 1.35 (currency exchange) = SGD$958.5
SGD$958.5 x 7% (GST) = $67.095.
So I only need to pay Singapore Custom $67.095?
No import duty charge from Singapore?
