Total Watts

  1. I've got two BBG's currently, on four and one five string. I had a BB100, my first decent bass. Plus a BBG4 I gave to a family member in a moment of generosity. They are all very good. The BBG's are old and no longer made, and deeply unfashionable, but anyone I play with comments on how good they sound. I see new colourful EBMM basses and I think "so what?". I love every Yamaha product I have owned and used.
  2. Bridge the fx loop with a short cable. Sometimes corrosion in the jack sockets cause semi shorts.
  3. Yamaha BBG4 is 40mm.
  4. I had the Version 1. It was okay I suppose. You could buy an EPROM online for a few quid, that updated it to the V2. That was fun to do.
  5. I can include a John East J-Tone 01 preamp with is bass, if that piques anyone’s interest. The preamp is only partly functional, since I managed to snap off the brass stem of the treble control. Since I only used the J-Tone to boost the bass, this was not a problem for me. To be able to use the bridge pickup with a good degree of bass boost was a revelation. If you’re interested, let me know. No increase in price for the inclusion of the preamp.
  6. Kinda reminds me of the Digitech iStomp. Which I have and like.
  7. I used to have one of these. Fabulous quality piece of kit, absolute bargain at a hundred smackers.
  8. Toneriders in my Jazz here. Coupled with a John East J-Retro they are great to my old ears.
