It's just passed £500. That's me out; it's a beautiful bit of kit but that's approaching BB3000 money. Good luck to whoever wins it, it looks absolutely stonking :-D

Speaking of which, there's a nice BB3000 here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/169887-yamaha-bb3000-for-sale/"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/169887-yamaha-bb3000-for-sale/[/url]

There are a great many fewer examples of the 2000 around than the 3000, given that the 3000 has never been out of production since its introduction. The pickup orientation on the 2000 also makes it a better instrument tonally.
