The only thing that could be better on my 300 ist he weight. But the tone on the other hand... πŸ™‚

I sold mine to @bigsmokebass and should’ve got it back. It was bloody lovely - I’ll get another.

I would’ve jumped on that white one but it needs to be Β£150

Anyone know which Yamaha is being played here? Looks like a reverse P so a MA version and the EQ doesn't look standard either.

I saw another video of the guy where he explains that he is playing a modded 1024 or 2024. Too be honest I only remember that he said that he changed the pickup's  (and the electronic's ) but I can't remember if it had already the reversed pickups. But I'm sure I can find the video again. So I think it should be a 1024 or 2024 where he changed the pu position - the custom made pickguard supports that thought.. πŸ˜‰

This is not THE video I was referring to but in it he is playing a black 1024...  Still searching for THE vid..
(go to 3:08 min) 

 

Edit: Well actually it already has he reversed pickups! So it is the 1024 !!

Are they EMG’s?

I don't think so because you can see the pole pieces of the pickups if you watch the video in the fullscreen modus... but I might be wrong here

I think I remember him talking about an Aguilar preamp ? (In the video that I am still searching for)

"Steve Cook started as a touring bass player when printed maps were the only way to get there. His extensive studio and touring credits run the gamut from rock to jazz to country. Also a busy producer and WWII aviation junkie, he welcomes you to reach out via Twitter @shinybass."

 

from Premier Guitar website, maybe invite him to post up about it, or share alink to the video explaining exactly what he has done to it

Finally, my whole BB family together. L-R: 235, 300, 1200S, 1200S, 400S, 735A.

Terrible pic quality, lightning conditions far from ideal.

It’s just too messed with to be a Β£300 BB300.

Didnt realise the machineheads had been swapped (didn’t look at all photos) and the relentless mentions of β€œroad worn” probably means it’s rough as derriΓ¨re.

In my opinion too much for a BB 300  without the decals ( why do yo do such a thing?) It does not look good in any way! Knobs....πŸ™ˆπŸ™ˆ

If it’s was Β£100 (I think that’s where it should be in that state) -

I would get it, and have Dave Wilson do a Nice paint job on it, matching headstock with new Decal...

Could you give me details about that guy Dave Wilson? I am still searching for someone to do a propper new finish on one of my 1000's..
