The Yamaha BB mega-thread

[SteveXFR]

I took my BB1100S to band practice for the first time. We're playing something between stoner metal and grunge so pretty noisy and nasty. The BB actually sounded better than my Spector. Played through an Ashdown ABM600 and Gallien Kreuger CX212 & CX115 cabs, it had a nice growl to it and loads of bottom end with a nice midrange punch. I had it set to active with mids boosted and both pickups plus a bit of drive on the amp.

I still love a BB, although these days the weight has taken them away from me... 🙁

Mine is my lightweight bass! Its definitely lighter than my Spector and doesn't neck dive.

Mine weighs at 3.67kgs. No neck dive too.

My moonlight blue P34. Did have a 735a and was after a P35 but as is the way of things, I ended up with the 4 string. No complaints. Great bass!
