Hooch Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 (edited) For sale this nice BB800 Yamaha, built during late 70s. Not far from being a time machine. Except a few marks here and there, this bass is in nearly new condition. No rust on the bridge, strap-pin or tuning pegs, almost new frets... a really nice one, which probably was an under-the-bed instrument for quite a long time. Construction is top-notch, as you'd expect from these old Yammies. The BB800 is based on a reverse-Pbass design, which is very interesting : tighter lows, with the same presence as non-reverse Pbasses. The neck is quite the same as a P62, a comfy one, 43,5mm in the nut position and not chunky at all. Trussrod works in both directions, with a nice low action – 2mm under the octave without fretbuzz. Not a feather but the bass doesn't weigh a ton : 4,4kg It's a great instrument, with great tones too, that comes with its genuine case (nice condition too).

Stance Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 Cool! Just bought one last month! But mine has the "BB" logo and not "Broad Bass", which I find more fancy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
