TJ Spicer Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 (edited) Yamaha BEX4 ÂŁ350 đ” A great semi-hollow body bass. Iâm surprised that these donât get more attention with the range of sounds this bass offers. Piezo, magnetic pickup, blend and a powerful active 3 band EQ can genuinely get it from old school to modern with ease. Itâs lightweight with a broadly appealing neck profile, neither tiny nor huge. The electronics have recently been re-soldered to ensure the bass is problem free for the foreseeable future. It comes with a hard-soft case, much like those provided with a Sadowsky. The bass has some marks and an amount of surface scratching from the last owner, but these marks are only obvious under certain daylight lighting conditions. Sat on the wall without daylight directly on it, youâd have a hard time seeing them. Collection, meet up or shipping all potentially available. Thank you for looking! Edited December 3, 2019 by TJ Spicer 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bassbiscuits Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 Great bass. I played one at a bass bash and was surprised how versatile they were. Looks cool too! Â 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philw Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I've had two over the years. The fretless converted orange one was particularly awesome. Really great and cool looking basses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectoremg Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 That's a beauty. Never understand why Yamaha guitars don't get the recognition they deserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassGeorge Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Hello TJ, would you consider to trade the bass to Germany, in general? I've been looking for the blue version of this bass for a long time, but nobody seems to have one here in Germany. Best regards, Georg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 How does this hang from a strap? Is there any forward tilt? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very different experience to the G&L ASATs Iâve played. T Edited November 19, 2019 by TJ Spicer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
