Bigwan Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Interesting to see that the new Yamaha uses a variation on the Sheehan Attitude 3 neck joint... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibob Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 Interesting update from Yamaha, although Matt/satin finish? There's going to be a whole load of knackered looking Yamahas soon lol What didn't you like about the 55-01? Pickups/Pre presumably if you'd consider a 55-02? Would be nothing stopping you dropping humbucker and single-coil soapbars into a 55-01 to give you a 55-02 sound. I guess depends if you can find a nice one used, usually £450-550, leaves monies for your choice of pickup/pre upgrade Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 [quote name='jassbass' timestamp='1491338805' post='3272310'] When are the new yamahas being released,? Anyone know [/quote] They are in stock on Japanese sites now, so not long. Give the Yamaha shop in London a ring perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AREA Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 [quote name='geoffbyrne' timestamp='1491211922' post='3271180'] If you liked the Sire V7, what about an M7? G. [/quote] Thats exactly what I would suggest... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
