Raslee Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 (edited) One in/ one out policy now truly in enforced place by Mrs Raslee and as I have another incoming P so this one can go to make some much needed space. So here we have a funky strawberry red Late 80’s/1990's Yamaha BB200. When I got it, it had been neglected - poor set up, strings on wrong and dodgy electrics - yet structurally the bass still felt very good indeed. I decided to treat this bass and upgraded with a Tone Rider pick up with whipped creamy covers, Kiogon wiring loom and a Gotoh bridge. The body and neck really are great condition for its year, and now it sounds and looks fantastic with the upgrades. A lot of (vintage) BB P bass for £200 (or offer) and it plays really sweet too; I won’t be too concerned if it doesn’t sell too quickly TBH but it is sitting here begging to be taken out. Original Yamaha pickups also included. Collect from Plymouth or will post in the UK for £20 - extra if abroad.

hooky_lowdown Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 You sure it's 80's? Looks like a Taiwanese 90's to me. Nice upgrades though. GLWTS. 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLWTS. 😃 You could well be right. It does have Taiwan stamped in the headstock and the serial starts with a 91 - 1991 perhaps? The guy I bought it off claimed it to be an 80’s but my knowledge on Yamaha BB’s is very little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
