Burns-bass Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) This is a beautiful and very rare Yamaha BX-1 headless bass with original fitted hard case. I love the way this bass looks, plays and sounds but I have no need for it anymore a I'm playing in classic-style bands and can't afford to have stuff I don't use hanging around. The condition is good, although there is some wear on the bridge and at the headstock and a few chips. Frets are in good nick too. The sound is unreal, deep deep bass, mids and (I guess if you really had to) you could get a good slap tone out of it. This is up there with the Roland GR-77B as the ultimate 80s bass. Images below, bass strung with flats, weight it about 3kg. I will not package this up and post it, and I won't budge on price as I love it. £650 grabs it.
