Terrific basses these. Used 4 string one for 10 years. Flexible tonal pallet and quite light on the shoulder. 
The Bart’s will make this a beast. GLWTS

@oldslapper Agree mate, great basses indeed!👍

I keep coming back to this Lukasz.

Being a Yamaha, it's almost certainly an excellent instrument. The spec is top-notch and it looks immaculate. Altogether, it's hard to imagine a better bass for this money. To top things off, the seller is reliable and a gent. I WISH I needed a fiver 😭

Glwts mate 👍🏻

I would immediately…if left handed.

This has to be the bargain of the forum! The upgrades alone are costly. If it were a Squier it would have sold instantly for the original price 🤣

I keep coming back to this as well……it’s a perfect fit for what I need and it’s only 20 mins down the road…..must sit on hands. Best of luck with the sale, someone is going to be very lucky.

The fact that this bass still hasn't sold is baffling to me. I used to play a BB604, and while its electronics were a little lacking (an issue that has very much been fixed here) it was one of the nicest playing basses I've ever laid hands on. Comfortable, relatively light, and incredibly stable (never had to touch the truss rod in six years and it would stay in tune for months).

 

I make my own basses, I'm broke, I have far too many instruments in my not-large home already and I don't play five strings, but I'm still sorely tempted by this.
