YAMAHA BB614 IN OLD VIOLIN BURST

[tom1946]

Right, I have the usual bass players problem, too many bass's and no money left so I'm going to sell a few of the 16 or so that I own.

I'll start with the Yammy BB614. Spec is:

Construction: Bolt-on neck.

Scale Length: 864mm (34").

Fingerboard: Rosewood.

Frets: 21 Large.

Radius: 250mm (10").

Body: Alder.

Neck: Maple.

Tuners: Open type.

Bridge: Vintage Style.

Pickups: 2 Split single coil, 1 Soapbar single coil.

Controls: Speed Knobs for Master Volume, Balancer, Trebl, Bass Mid Cut Frequency.

Tiny ding on the upper bout, almost invisible.
Rest of the guitar is mint, I look after my stuff. Old violin burst was discontinued 2 years ago so this colour is hard to find.

Have to say the bass control on this will seriously rattle your windows.
I'm now in my 'maple' phase so my roesewood bass's have to go.

Am I the only person that finds maple necks easier to play?

Price wise these are £379 online but not in this colour so I'd like £260 for this one with a nice gigbag, carriage about 12 quid.

Thanks for looking

Tom.

Bump for a really nice bass.

Would trade for minty Cort or Fender with maple neck, cash either way.

Doh! If only you were a bit (OK, a lot) nearer, I'd be popping round for a cuppa and a closer look!

You'd be welcome Doctor.

Anyway, I've just played this again and decided to keep it. It's just too good to let go. :^^:
