koval123 Posted June 27, 2018 Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) Up for sale goes a nice vintage Yamaha BB1000S bass guitar in a beautiful transparent red finish. It sports neck-through-body maple/mahogany neck with dark rosewood fretboard and alder body wings. Original pickups had been replaced with EMG active pickups with passive vol-vol-tone controls. Neck is comfy, smooth and straight. Truss rod working as it should, frets show some signs of use but there is still a lot of life left in them. The weight is about 4,5 kg (10 lb) on my traveller scales. PayPal payment possible (buyer covers the fee), shipping within EU will take £30. It will be well boxed and insured for shipping.

Al Krow Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) Wow! I really liked this back in June when you first posted this and with the new lower price tag, for a classic neck through Yamaha someone should snap this up pdq! Whereabouts are you based? Do you know the year of make? Edited August 29, 2018 by Al Krow
SurroundedByManatees Posted August 28, 2018 Posted August 28, 2018 Tempting. I bet it sounds great with those emg pickups.
koval123 Posted August 29, 2018 Author Posted August 29, 2018 @Al Krow: according to the Yamaha dater chart it was made in 1997 (provided that I properly decoded the S/N). I'm based in Poland and so is the guitar.
koval123 Posted August 30, 2018 Author Posted August 30, 2018 Thanks hypercarrots, that was my typo. Indeed it's 1987 production.
