  1. Very nice 😉👌🏻 got that MIJ/Westone/Aria look about it. Throw some strap buttons on it though
  2. Which would be big a sale factor? Some would say its the best of both worlds 😜😂
  3. Damn, Jens Ritter sure knows how to combine bass and art. Not my colour but neither would I turn it down all the same 😂 Merry Christmas, glwts 🎅👍🏻
  4. Some camera obscura trickery 😅😂 all the same, more sexy shots to see and that finish is remarkable 😍
  5. What's the action like? Don't know whether it's the lighting but looks pretty high up/bowed neck
  6. Forget Tony Kanal, Andy Trav, the yamaha bass man's, actual Yamaha bass for sale. 😉👌🏻 For anyone who doesn't know, top guy and not a bad comedian either. Buy here with confidence 😁🤙🏻
  7. Just noticed as I come back onto the listings 😅 still on the search for the perfect bass?
  8. Pretty sure he has a pick guard for my BB I purchased about 3 years ago 😜 wouldn't say no if he's still got it 🤣
  9. I do like the aesthetics of the fender more but I think and feel the yamaha would be one I'd keep. Perhaps find a nice pick guard for it?
  10. Haven't played on but I've heard good things about Fernandes guitars and basses. I believe they make Burny (someone correct me?) Which make superb Gibson copies, some competing with serious money models. Are you able to check it out in person and get a hands on experience? Most Japanese made instruments seem to be top notch 👍🏻
  11. Guild is a good shout but I do like the Hagstrom Viking bass. I know a few players on here will also vouch for Epiphone Jack Cassady too but scale length and handedness may be undesirable (unsure whether they make a lefty)
  12. I'd look at the Yamaha BB200/400 series. Fantastic basses and got brilliant construction and sound, especially with the B string. Lots of comfort and clarity
  13. Having played a few and not knowing what your budget is, I'd recommend finding a store that has a variety of these models available to try out and see what you think in person and hands on. I understand people like to have "the original McCoy" and pay top dollar, nothing wrong with that but not always to everyone's affordability and some of these cheaper models are pretty damn good for the money and a fraction of the cost of their American sibling. I'd be tempted to give them a go and even report back what you thought 😁 As much as I liked the ones I played (whilst working in a guitar store) I'm not one for active basses, or I'd have one 👍🏻
  14. You'll have to stop selling the sort I like, just saying 😉😂 at least it's sold, nice bass and I'm sure the new owner is happy 😁👍🏻
  15. I play 5's but just bought your Yamaha RBX 😂🙈 On which note: Craig's a top lad and absolute pleasure to deal with, buy here with confidence 👍🏻
  16. Craig is pretty much part of the family now after buying and selling Yamaha's between us over the past year or two. Always a pleasure to deal with and a friendly, down to earth guy. Buy and sell here with confidence! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
  17. Purchased a Yamaha BB300 from Ted, collected yesterday. Super friendly guy, got to meet the family, pet and hold the puppy and played on some of Ted's bass collection! Truly honoured and a pleasure to deal with Ted 😁👍🏻 Buy and sell with confidence. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
  18. Welcome to the forum, Saskia! 😁 I hope you're settling in well already and find some helpful tips for getting you in the deep end and hopefully more confident for playing with fellow musicians. Tbh, I don't blame you with Scott's bass lessons. For a guy who builds a reputation from being smarmy and clickbait videos, I find it hard to respect him, his opinions and lessons myself 😅 so, welcome to the club 😂 Hope you enjoy the forum anyhow and make some great friends, as I have.
  19. Welcome to the forum, I hope we're a lot nicer than the American alternative but be careful, some members do bite 😂😂 Some awesome gear and hope you're enjoying playing bass once more. Any goals or aspirations? Sure hope using this forum helps you come closer to achieving them 😁👍🏻
  20. Welcome RJ, Nice introduction and I hope you soon feel at home. Lotsa cool people here to talk with and many topics to pique your interest 😎👍🏻
