A decent split P and a Yamaha bridge pickup would be good, if the price is right but he's looking £450 best offer to me. I do like that maple fretboard and the colour is nice, I do like a challenge ... You can buy the bb 414/1024 bridge pickups, you could make it a neck through yamajazz… it’s also 4.9kg too 😳 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 No, just ignore me for I am a tit.😁 There's a few but they're all in Japan. The SB1200s is £1200. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maude Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Ooh that reminds me of my first proper bass, an Attitude Special. There's a super sexy SBV800MF (for Mutha flipa! 😄) on there in a metallic blue/green. It looks amazing but it's nearly £2.4k delivered, before any import fees get slapped on top.

Maude Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Just mucking about seeing if I can upload a reasonable audio clip here. Recorded on my phone placed in front of an Ashdown B-Social, no editing or EQing as I have no means of doing that, I don't own a computer. I couldn't have it loud either but I think it's actually worked OK and isn't bad quality. Ignore the timing and random non muted strings and shizzle, it was just to see if I could upload reasonable audio. And as it was a BB it's going here. 😁 BBPH & EHX Bass Clone. https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/Nj87z 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might just put a speculative bid in for it. Anyone got any suggestions on its value? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EJWW Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 It astounds me the low values the BB414s go for. They are a no nonsense bass and with the matching headstock they look the business. Just have it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW what’s the difference between the 414 and the 350? Is it just the reverse P pickup on the 350 and does that make much difference compared to the normal p arrangement?

Will be good to hear how your 434 stacks up against them. Edited October 31, 2021 by Al Krow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
