doomed Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 (edited) Been thinking about getting a 5 string for a while, so...

Len_derby Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Yamahas are great choices for 5 strings in my experience. Enjoy! Quote
louisthebass Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Good choice - can't go wrong with a Yammy! Quote
spectoremg Posted July 8, 2017 Posted July 8, 2017 Yamaha got it spot on with that design. Enjoy. Quote
Grahambythesea Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Lovely looking bass. I've always thought Yammies were likely to be heavy, how's this one? Quote
doomed Posted July 11, 2017 Author Posted July 11, 2017 (edited) Not too bad, I haven't weighed it but I'd guess around 9lb. Tried it out at practice Sunday evening and it has a lovely growl. Edited July 11, 2017 by doomed Quote
Trueno Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 I'm not even a 5 stringer myself, but that looks the business. Quote
Paul S Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 I have the no scratch plate version for sale at this very moment - only because I went for a more up market and vintage Yamaha. But these are the best vfm 5er out there, I reckon. Quote
Graham Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 I'm not normally a fan of all black basses, but that looks really classy. Quote
Rikki_Sixx Posted July 13, 2017 Posted July 13, 2017 That's one helluva bass. I've never played a Yamaha bass (I do have a Pacifica guitar - great quality!) but I've always thought they look awesome. There's something about the look of those pick-ups that always makes me want one! Quote
