Based in Scotland. Will post anywhere in U.K. Sorry folks no trades as moving to OZ :-)

I have owned many basses in the £1000+ price range and i have to say i have never played a bass before that sounds and plays so well. The people at Yamaha really know what they are doing. Soon as i get to Oz i will be reordering another one that is for sure. T

My last bass to sell before i move to Oz. This bass is in almost in unplayed condition and has been sitting storage for the past few months. No signs of wear or damage on the bass. I have owned 30+ basses over the past 10 years and i have to say, i have been floored by the build and sound of these BB424X Basses. I love the bass so much i plan to get another one when i settle in Oz. Free shipping to U.K. Mail me if interested ;-)

Sale pending

quick sale will take 200 for bass ;-)

Good Lord. I think thats the bass i sold you a long time ago ;-) Looks very nice :-) I have sold so many basses on here sometimes i just loose track haha. How much are you selling it for? Brian [quote name='garbev' post='1209340' date='Apr 23 2011, 05:56 PM']I've been putting this off for a while but I'm just not playing it anymore and I hate instruments as household ornaments. This has been my main gigging and recording 5 string since I bought it off the forum a few years ago. I'm mainly playing 4 strings these days and I have another five for the rare occasions when it's required. It's an early model(No2291) Basic 5, not one of the pre Gibson models but I belive it's a '93 model, it has the "Tobias" stamped bridge and it originally had a Bartolini XTCT preamp. The preamp failed around a year ago so I had a Bart NTMB 3 band fitted. The bass has a 34 inch scale 5 piece Maple and Purpleheart asymmetric Through Neck, Pau Ferro fingerboard, with solid Flamed Maple body wings. Bartolini pups and preamp, Tobias bridge and Grover Tuners. String spacing at the bridge is 17.5mm It's in good condition, some dings at the lower bout of the body, frets are very good and the dual truss rods work perfectly, it's set up with a low action and is buzz free all over the neck. When I bought the Bass I had some concerns about a mark at the top of the neck near the headstock, I obviously queried this with the seller who assured me the bass had not suffered a headstock break. Trusting man that I am I had it checked by a local Luthier, Gary Lewis based in Neath who thought it could have been a gouge or scrape on the neck caused by a sharp object, as there was no evidence of damage from any impact at the front or rear of the headstock, I've tried to show this mark on some closeups of the mark and the headstock. The bass plays and sounds fantastic, the B string response is brilliant sounds like an extension of the E string....best way I can describe it . Have a look: Some pix of the headstock: The Bass comes with a Tobias hardcase this is in pretty good nick but the combination locking latch is broken. I took the guitar to the first South Wales bass bash....RIP Si....and everyone who played it were very impressed. Tradewise I'm looking for a Stingray4, USA 70's reissue jazz or USA 50's reissue P Bass Ideally with maple f/boards. I don't mind a Japanese Fender but would want some cash on top. I'm in S.Wales but don't mind driving M4/M5 for fuel costs, or could courier. I'll be in London next Weekend visiting family. Thanks, Gary.[/quote]

The bass is in mint condition ;-) [quote name='Jonnyrocks' post='1207445' date='Apr 21 2011, 07:46 PM']I have a btb 400 myself, dunno if it's exactly the same thing, but I have always been very pleased with its results. It's an amazingly versatile bass and if you get accustomed to it, you can pretty much get any sound you want out of it, I remember paying 400€ for it with a set of elixirs on it, so £200 can be considered a good price if in good state. I recommend it to anyone! Good luck with your sale Jon[/quote]

[quote name='bkman42' post='1136199' date='Feb 21 2011, 09:35 PM']Bought this fantastic bass from a fellow basschatter at the weekend. Its a stunning bass and has one hell of a sound. It's 35 inch scale, neck thru with Bartolini active pickups. The finish of this bass is a real show stopper :-) The only reason i am selling is due to the fact the neck is a tiny bit wide for my taste :-( Bass is 100% mint and from the look of it has had pretty much no use! I will include free shipping. Thanks for looking folks[/quote] Price drop ;-)
