DarkHeart Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Im thinking of trading a 4 string Jackson Kelly Bird for one of the above as the band currently requires a low B string and theres no way im taking my Alpher to some of the venues ive played so whats peoples opinion on the Yamaha?

M@23 Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 (edited) No experience of them. But, it is a Yamaha and Miki Santamaria on YouTube seems to like them, they look great too. I'd like to try one. Edited September 11, 2016 by M@23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 I've reviewed the 304 and on eof my students has one too. Gotta say, for the money, it's a great bass. I expect the 5 to be more of the same, though I haven't tried one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
progben Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I had the 304 and it's great - very versatile and was my main gigging and recording bass for a whole year. Dyerseve is selling one over in the classifieds for £175. Drop him a PM! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tobiewharton Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I owned one and thought it was excellent. The build quality was very good indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
