iconic Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) I never knew that Yamaha made a headless bass BX-1, what a looker, any headless bass floats my boat looks wise, but there must be some reason why they never seem to catch on, which makes it even more bizzare that the those old proper Steinberger's make such big money? Seems these BX-1's were deleted after maybe 2/3 years....such a cool looking bass to my shallow, easily impressed eyes ...and I like that pink Yamaha bass from the same 1985 catalog too Edited December 23, 2009 by iconic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noelk27 Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Aria Pro II also did the WL series (circa '85), its version of the cricket bat, and a headless version of the SB series (circa '93). Neither model stayed in its catalogue for very long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
