thebrig Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) Here's the American Hot-Rodded P/J Precision I had few years ago, it was great! Just wish I still had it. Why do we always think that the next bass will be better? Edited April 23, 2011 by thebrig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noelk27 Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 [quote name='Bassassin' post='1208470' date='Apr 22 2011, 03:58 PM']Interesting, ... "Broad Bass" is exactly the sort of Japlish acronym you'd expect, but doing a bit of Googling it seems Brunel was involved in the development of the BB3000 fretless, which he apparently still uses. However according to [url="http://www.yamaha.co.jp/product/guitar/archive/"]Yamaha's guitar database[/url] the BB range debuted in 1977 with the BB800, BB1000 & BB1200 models - the BB3000 appeared in 1982, so no idea if BB would have been involved in those early models.[/quote] When Yamaha "redesigned" the BB concept, and introduced the 3000, a number of musicians, including Michael Anthony and Bunny Brunel, were consulted. But, Brunel was not involved in the design and development of the original BB concept, in the 70s. When it debuted, the original BB, the 1200, had "Broad Bass" printed, in black block letters with gold outline, on the headstock, and in smaller black letters "by Yamaha", with the model number in the smallest type. This graphic was short-lived, being replaced by the more familiar design featuring the Yamaha name and model "number". "BB" has always stood for Broad Bass.
