Yamaha BBNE2 Nathan East 5 String (no longer available) £2300

[lawriemacmillan]

Celebrating the 30-year partnership between Yamaha and bass legend Nathan East, the BBNE2LTD is a limited edition version of Nathan's signature 5 string bass featuring an exclusive eye-popping pewter finish, black nickel hardware and Nathan's hand written signature in the electronics plate. It's a limited run of only 50 basses in the world.

Featuring neck-through construction, the two-octave neck is built from maple and mahogany with an ebony fingerboard inlaid with figured abalone. Matching mother-of-pearl tuners complete the look. The unique BB body is made of maple and alder for a fat sound with plenty of definition. The BPZ-7 bridge features individual, machined saddles that provide precise intonation, a low profile, and an elegant look. The stacked Alnico humbuckers run through Yamaha's 5-control active electronics, which feature a custom 3-band EQ with a switchable mid-cut to provide sonic versatility for any situation.
