pete.young Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 This looks to me like a BB1200, from the date and the pickup configuration. In original case, with tools and an unfitted clear perspex pickguard. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=181238563983 I know there's some love for these here, so hopefully someone will be able to pick this up. Definitely not crap, so deserves its own thread rather than going in the Japcrap one. Quote
gary mac Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 Yes, plenty of love. Luke posted about it previously as he was planning to buy. Quote

LukeFRC Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 not planning to buy now btw - get bidding Quote
pete.young Posted October 18, 2013 Author Posted October 18, 2013 Recent purchases mean that I'll have to stick with my similar-vintage BB800 . Quote
LukeFRC Posted October 18, 2013 Posted October 18, 2013 well I can afford a wee bit more than the current price so going to have a wee bid on, expecting to be outbid. Quote
pete.young Posted October 21, 2013 Author Posted October 21, 2013 How did it go Luke? Just over £300 seems to be a very good deal for someone. Quote
Ashborygirl Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 That was a steal, £304 for a BB1200? The world's gone mad. Quote

LukeFRC Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 oh and a shade over 10lb, and possibly, if they used the serial numbers consecutively, the [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]134th Yamaha BB ever made..... [/font][/color] Quote
pete.young Posted October 24, 2013 Author Posted October 24, 2013 Nice one. Just found your other thread in Bass Guitars. Good result all round I reckon. Well done. Quote
