It’s still going…not as high as I thought it’d be

Had the same 2 padded Levy’s ones for a while now. Black one is 15 years old and bought the maroon one here about 6 years ago. no idea of the “model” - absolutely ace.

45 degree string through body on all… BB 242 - a reverse P - Alder BB 343 - as above p/j BB 747 - as above Laminate neck 6 bolt passive Alder/Maple Sandwich BB 949 - as above neck through Yamaha will introduce a Nathan East Pre pedal - like the Sadowsky Unit - with 9v in and footswitch - and an in built compressor this will be called the NE-BB pre and will be discounted when you buy in conjunction with the bass. and we’ll all be happy. Some decent Colours too…not just blummin sunburst and black or white

Typically Yamaha run like a car manufacturer, 6-8 years of a model and the colour changes happen towards the end. you’re probably right. now….if they do the “classic BB” like the 414 (basically a 1600 reissue) with the multi lam neck 424/1024/2024 with the fancy sandwich body and 6 bolt neck 434/p34 we’re getting close to perfection @Machines and I spoke earlier about this.

That’s the one… need neon pink Mohawk and leopard print spandex for that one

They crop up on reverb occasionally. Usually black

In the meantime 🤤

Think there was a very odd one, will look

😉

404/604/BBV

BBN4 BBG4 BB1500a BB1300 BB850 BB800 BB714BS BB400 BB300 BB350 (1990’s) BB200 BB1200 loads of BB’s are P/JJ/HH just not current.

Nah. I’ve had 2. No more now. Not needed

🥳

That moonlight blue would look lovely with a clear pickguard

400 model too

Vintage white is nice too

Balls. Blue burst. Game over 🥳

Why is that LPB £17k dearer than it should be? weird.

Urgh gawd…kids yup. still training the younger 2 on how not to interfere with daddy recording 😂

@Baloney Balderdash - I must say, Tim is a genius when it comes to fabricating for basses without pickguards. He’s helped me with some previously. you can make a paper template (or card) and he can work from that.

That’s Fender QC for ya…
