richardd Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) Hi .I have a lovely 1024,but would like to try a 5 string. But need a string spacing similar as possible to the 1024.I had a 605 but that was to narrow ,Definitely want to stay with Yamaha BBs.Thanks Rich .😊 Edited August 17, 2021 by richardd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeFRC Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 You might find it better to ask in this thread where all the Yamaha bb nuts hang out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete.young Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 605 is supposedly 18mm, same as the 1025. If you want a Yamaha 5 with full 19mm spacing you're probably talking about a TRB 5P Mk 1, which seem to have soared in value recently 😞 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had the 1025x and currently a 425 and feel the string spacing is ok,certainly better than the older Yamaha 5s. Not sure on the current versions of the BB, but I don't think a 19mm exists on a BB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
