Thanks Al.

Would THERE BE MUCH DIFFERENCE IN QUALITY BETWEEN a BB404 and an RBX 370a and can you put the latter into passive mode? would one be easier to play for someone like me with small fingers??

[Just tell me to do one if Im being a pest! ]

Cheers Dusti

Thanks again!

I hadnt noticed the 760a was a j pup I was looking at buying one today for very reasonable dough, but I decided to go with a BB404 [ to a large extent because they are  passive plus distance for collection]   

I am playing a BC Rich Mockingbird  Which I came accoss and bought ages ago when I wasnt really playing bass, thinking I'd get back into it again at some point, Which I now have! I had tried a custom built one 30years ago when I was in a band and it had always stayed with me how much easier to play it was than whatever I was playing at the time. I hadn't even heard of P and Jazz then. I dont understand what the hell is going on with the controll nobs and setting up the sound is always a bit random and unsatisfactory. I think I would prefer a passive with nobs I understand! The way the B C Rich hangs down is unpleasant too.

 TBH Im not that good and still looking to find 'my sound' I am now thinking Maybe buying two bases, P and J, and experimenting with both for a while might be the way forward. So 2 Yamahas would be afordable and hopefully help towards both bases of a similar quality so as not to confuse the experiment.

Many thanks

thanks Al Krow ... yes ebay driven.Well that and chat on here and elsewhere praising the quality and playability of these yamahas obvs coupled with the resonable prices compared to other brands!

does that highrer number better spec rule apply when the last diget is lower eg 270 760??

thanks again

Thanks  BREAD BIN. 

hello?

Please can any one tell me which is the best of these 4 yamahas?   also is it a case of higher number =better bass with the RBX range?
