soulstar89 Posted April 27 Posted April 27 Bassbros have a bb1100s in a competition. I think it’s a MIJ and not Taiwan as I’ve not seen a sunburst Taiwan made before. https://competitions.bassbros.co.uk/product/1987-yamaha-bb1100s/ Quote
Doctor J Posted April 27 Posted April 27 You can see it's stamped Taiwan on the back of the headstock. I think 85 or 86 was the last year for Japanese ones. Quote

HMX Posted May 4 Posted May 4 I never win things. That’s what I said to myself when I missed out on a bass competition a few months back. Anyway, I decided to go in for that Yamaha and… well, I won it!!! Is it your old bass, Andy? I’ve never played a Yamaha before so I’m psyched about this one arriving. 6 Quote

I was thinking of entering the comp and then my large format film addiction got the better of me and I bought some new film gear 🙈😩. 2 Quote
