ChunkyMunky Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 (edited) What's got 5 strings, superior Yamaha build quality, incredible passive P-bass tones (and more) and all for a great price? My Yamaha BB1025X. I bought this from a fellow member on here (CameronJ) about a couple of years ago and as much as I seriously do not want to sell this, other mitigating financial circumstances are persuading me otherwise. Worn but good condition on this. I've attached a YouTube video to show off the bass itself, though it doesn't fully do it justice. I'm based out of West Sussex and please feel free to shoot me over any questions/requests you may have. Thanks a bunch for reading! Edited December 29, 2018 by ChunkyMunky Price drop. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameronJ Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Ah, my old baby! Truly a beautiful thing. To this day I still have seller’s remorse. GLWTS! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me how short you're coming up. It'd be unreasonable and arrogant at least of me to not even consider it. 6 hours ago, Dandelion said: I suppose a trade is not on the table Chunky? 'fraid not, Dandelion. If it were, I wouldn't need to sell this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alhbass Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Very tempting - though sadly not a purchase I could justify right now. I still regret selling my 1024x. With hindsight it's clear that it was one of the best instruments I've owned. Keen price too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Painy Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Typical! If this had come up a couple of weeks earlier I'd have had it like a shot! To be fair I'm very happy with the Sterling Stingray 25CA that I actually bought but now feeling like I might have been even happier with this if I'd just waited a little longer. 😔 I'd say GLWTS but I'm really hoping that nobody else buys it before I can find the money myself! 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
