I just ordered gold hardware for my candy apple red BB1000MA. I think it will look orgasmic 😛 

Just learned abot his blue BB ...BBG5s, Also the white one. With Bastec and Delano pu's. 

He says---bass is 250 Euros but perfect for him..

More Frank Itt on BB
Frank Itt - Heathrow

Frank Itt is a bass legend over here and Anika Nilles one of Germany's most popular female drummers. 

Did we take a look at Frank on his older BB already?

By the way, I am thinking about a vintage yellow / white for the green 1000ma....

I'm never going to come to terms with the fact that Yamaha dropped orange for the 424. 

The absence of a Precision-y noise from the neck pickup doesn't bother me, as I bought it for the sound of both pickups together. Perhaps that slight extra bassyness from placing the split a tiny bit closer to the neck was felt to give a better balance when the two are mixed together? At any rate, it does it for me.

Exactly! I love my BB's for the sound of the P/J combination. In my oponion Yamaha has "created" a very unique sound with the BB's. If you want a sound that is 100% like a Fender Precision...buy one. 

Because of Andy's inpiring post..🙂

One of the many finishes my oldest 1000ma had to face during the last 20 years .. 😛 
 

Just because... 🙂 

Sorry, wrong thread 😉 

I took the chance to visit a big store (Musicstore) again this week. I need a lightweight but powerfull cab because due to Corona a lot of bands are history and I started checkig out projects. I don't want to carry my 37kg bass cab every time.  I liked the Hartke HD500 combo. It's really loud and sounds very good but I went the combo way before and I like it analog and oldschool. 🙂 I tested all the cabs with a BB 234 (!) it was the only BB with fresh strings in the shop. Went back in the shop the next day with my own BB to be sure... and I ordered a Glockenklang Uno Rock Art light. A 15" cab that is a stand alone cab. I love the warmth of a good 15" and this cab with the Glockenklang wide angle dome tweeter sounds awesome! 
Actually, I was impressed by the BB234. It sounded very good for a low budget bass ! 

Played a reahearsal yesterday with the green BB1000ma over the ABM600/ 410. Sweet tone. I just love that bass. Nice growl when played with both pu's.
I think, I will phone the lacquer guy tomorrow.... metallic gold for one of the next BB's........

Off to the first real rehearsal for ages ..!!! I am so happy to play my Yami loud and proud again  
By the way....I am thinking of a gold  metallic finish for the next BB1000ma...... thoughts? 

My rig for medium to large stages. With monitoring this combination never lets you down. There are more cabs in case Metallica is calling but usually I take only one with me 😎
 

A pickgard might even look good on a 1000ma ... 😄

You have to consider what goes with the red inlays. Orange will clash.

metallic silver?

Silver... I'n in the wrong bands for a silver bass 🙂 

My last idea was a BB434m in orange metallic... mathing headstock..musst be stunning with the maple neck! 

Right now I would like either a metallic orange or a vintage white.... but that might change 😄 

Well, the basses are real wood 😄 The floor is just a good looking laminate 😉

Now... which one will be next..? 

R.E.D is in da house ! 😍

Bet that sounds f'kin awesome!

This would be the Glockenklang pendant... 800watts of the most true bass tone cabs on earth.

An alternative choice for cabs are Hartke 112HD or 210HD. I just love the sound of my small Hartke Combo speaker.
