Jigster Posted May 21, 2010 Posted May 21, 2010 (edited) The Yamaha BB and BBn range is pretty exhaustive as seen often on the forum - loads of BB models out there. This is a workaday unflashy budget model. Nice natural finish and sweet rosewood neck. The tuners are excellent - listen, it's a Yamaha they don't make s***!! The BBN5 is a good start up for 5 strings, it's why I got it, and it plays nice. Good neck, straight and loads of wear in the frets. I think it's about 10 years old - diff to date Yamahas - the pick ups do a job but an upgrade will bring out its natural tone which acoustically is actually pretty sweet - alder body, passive, some scuff marks. Good balance on strap. The jack plug is just a little recessed, but the lead goes in fine and solid. Needs a restring. Can post at buyer's cost or meet within reasonable distance and petrol money PICS ON THE LINK BELOW [url="http://s1009.photobucket.com/home/Jigster2010"]http://s1009.photobucket.com/home/Jigster2010[/url] Edited February 28, 2011 by Jigster
valere24 Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 Have a bump on me. These are great basses at a very good price.

samuponsamuponsam Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 Hey man, I'm quite interested in the 4 string. Am I right in thinking its this, the yamaha BBN4iii?: [url="http://www.yamaha-europe.com/picture_archiv/products/10_Musical_instruments/guitars_basses_amps/bass_guitars/bbn4iii_medium_jpg.jpg"]http://www.yamaha-europe.com/picture_archi..._medium_jpg.jpg[/url] Also, is there anyway I could hear what it sounds like, maybe if you could upload a quick youtube video or an mp3 somewhere? Cheers
Jigster Posted May 29, 2010 Author Posted May 29, 2010 hi thanks for the message - i'm pathetic but i don't have any option to do either of that -
samuponsamuponsam Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 (edited) Ahh ok fair enough man. How much would postage be? I just need to work everything out financially but I'm definitely considering Edited May 29, 2010 by samuponsamuponsam
