However, time's ticking and no bids... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A white one, which is the other best colour, just popped up on FB marketplace in Nottingham too. I really don’t need two. Or three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely, judging by the school of piranhas swimming around it now, currently pointing and laughing at the turning down of the £200 offer, but will no doubt start nibbling soon.

neepheid Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Not me - only interested in reverse P BBs now. However, seeing the 414 did give me half an idea to look for a 424X so there's a pickguard to hide the P pickup reversal... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right, I’ve sold plenty of stuff on eBay and always made a counter offer to people, I should remember that we can’t expect everyone to be as lovely as myself ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dean Vincent Posted May 13, 2023 Share Posted May 13, 2023 Maybe it's one of those blessings in disguise. I've got three BBs but right now I'm very tempted by the endless sustain on the Cort A4 neckthrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldon Tyrell Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 BB fans, I guess anyone who wants a BBP34 should quickly buy one as the new MK II (two existing finishes plus two new finishes - moonlight blue and vintage white. Not sure if there are any other differences between MKI and II) comes with a hefty price tag - £2.5k. I mean, really? The now "old" MKI can still be purchased for £1.6k/£1.5k.

TheGreek Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Bb414 in black on Gumtree for £230. Viewing on my phone so copying the link is a bit of a pain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Krow Posted May 20, 2023 Author Share Posted May 20, 2023 Am thinking about upgrading the preamp on my BB2005, which is feeling a little tired on what is, otherwise, a great bass. Any of you swapped out the preamp on your active Yamahas and could recommend me something that worked well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whamni Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 There's a nice BB734a for sale on ebay if anyone is interested ! www.ebay.co.uk/itm/295711304691 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk600 Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Hey guys, I currently own a BB434 and a BB714 BS and love both, but I would like to hear your for feedback on purchasing a 1024x versus a 734A. I found a used 1024X for similar price of a new 734A, and the 734A is basically the same as the 434 except the preamp and a few tweaks, so thinking that a 1024x would make more sense. What I wanted in fact was to buy a used BBP34 (because the new is too expensive) but they are non-existent where I live so I am thinking the 1024X would be a good mid ground option. What would you do? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
