Fretless Yamaha BBF4 lll Lined Fretless Bass + La Bella Strings , KiOgen Loom fitted inc. Fender Padded Gig Bag. £275 North Staffordshire

[dodgnofski]

My really nice Yamaha Passive BBN4 lll Fretless Bass with a solid Alder body, Maple neck & a beautifully figured Slab Rosewood lined fingerboard, plays like the proverbial dream and sounds great with oodles of mwoarrrrr. In excellent condition with just a few tiny light play marks, which are purely aesthetic & for a 20 + year old Bass, I would describe the overall condition as excellent.

 

Suitable for either the seasoned Fretless player, or due to the low action and fret lines this would be excellent for a beginner or an inexpensive way to try a Fretless if you’ve always fancied one, but didn’t want to spend a lot of your Great British pounds in case Fretless is not for you.
 

Set up really nicely with a low action all the way up the neck, a lovely rich ‘woody’ sound & the bridge pickup provides instant Jaco when required.

 

New KiOgen Professional Loom fitted with Bourne Pots & Switchcraft Barrel Jack Socket.
 

Nice and light at 3.7kg or a tad over 8lbs in ‘old money’ according to my digital scales.The Fret lines thankfully extend over the sides of the fingerboard making intonation a doddle, even for an old duffer like me.

 

In excellent condition, with just a few play wear marks / small indents but nothing serious.

 

Collection welcome, or postage to the U.K. Mainland only via fully insured 24 hour delivery at cost price to the buyer.
