Yamaha BBNE2 Nathan East Signature Model White, Excellent Condition - Some slight signs of use

 

One of the best basses I have ever owned, this one is a real gigging work horse that fits into the mix on any style of gig! I am reluctant to let this one go, but with a new bass on order it means it might have too. No trades, thank you.  

 

Comes with a used Marleaux soft case. 

 

Collection Preferred. 

 

Featuring neck-through construction, the two-octave neck is built from maple and mahogany with an ebony fingerboard inlaid with figured mother-of-pearl. 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.

 

5-Piece Neck Through design

The neck through design uses a 5-piece maple and mahogany neck sandwiched between the maple on alder body.

Contoured Body

Both the front and back of the bass body are contoured to provide players with a compact, well fitting instrument that offers greater playing comfort.

Pickups

The stack type pickups are designed in collaboration with Nathan East. The Alnico V pickups include hum-canceling coils.

Indivisual Bridge Pieces

The bridge consists of individual bridge pieces that reduce interference from other string vibration delivering a purer tone.

Active Electronics

Active electronics include a special equalizer circuit based on Nathan East's “Magic Box". The circuit lets you cut off the selected mid frequency at the touch of a switch for precision sound tailoring.

Beautiful bass...and it's no secret how good these basses are...

 

Seller may not be aware that my birthday is 28th December so, as every other year, I expect presents that are "for Xmas and your birthday..."

 

More than happy to accept this for both...🤭🤭🤣🤣
