Chris2112 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 It has those special inlays! I believe, since it is considered a "premium" signature model that it will be handcrafted in Japan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 (edited) The BB1000MA is the Taiwan factory-made bolt-on neck lower priced Michael Anthony model that is very similar to the BB414. The BB3000MA hand built in Japan is neck through and has different pickups and hardware - it also has all the usual benefits of a hand-built instrument. Both are very nice basses and very usable indeed - if you can live with those inlays - there are chili peppers on the 3000 and red crowns on the 1000). Personally I'd either go with BB2000's BB3000 (BB3000MA based on this) that's up for sale here or OutToPlayJazz's BB424 (newer improved version of BB414).
