Yamaha Appreciation Thread!

Then came an offer I couldn't refuse when a shop had a massive discount on their Yamaha's.
BB1024 TBS

And then last week another second hand buy.
BB414 Black Sparkle, a lot of bass for € 150,- including a case.

Very nice collection there MGB, if you ever want to sell the Organbe BB415, let me know

Found this on eBay, a stripped down RBX375(?) Liked the feel of the RBXs but didn't really like the colours, this on the other hand....

Here's my two yammies. BB1024X and BBG5S

I just became a FanBoy of these basses - now I'm all in.

Happy owner of a Yamaha BB604 from this very forum. 

Bought it winter 2016 as a back up bass but it's turned into a regular gigging bass as it's so good. 

I keep toying with the idea of giving a crazy art makeover but haven't settled on a suitably cool design yet. 

Here it is alongside my Jack Casady.

Hah! Just discovered this thread, I suspect I'm going to be spending some 'unhelpful' GAS inducing time here.

That's a rather nice collection of Yammy's you have - in addition to the Red BB300, I couldn't quite make out the model reference on the headstock of the white one? And that black one looks decidedly like a BBNE2? If so, very jealous! Did you buy that one new or manage to pick up used - it looks pristine?

I picked up this old TRB6 yesterday, MIJ goodness and a fretboard wide enough to land an A380 on.

The BEX4 is a recent addition. Interesting instrument, for sure.

I love my BEX4, simple but really versatile, punches through a band like a Precision but with a touch of hollow airiness. 

This is the only other Yamaha I have at the moment, a '99 BBG5s owned from new.

Nice BBG, that!
