Product Description

What your checking out here is a Yamaha BB300 from the 80's, made from 1982 till 1994 (the BB300's made in the 90's had a slightly different looking headstock). Made in Japan or Taiwan, these basses were very solidly built instruments for the price back in the day.

The specs:
alder body
maple neck with rosewood fingerboard
Seymour Duncan SPB-3 Quarter Pound P-bass pickups
passive controls - 1 volume, 1 tone (control pots are original to the bass)
hi-mass bridge with brass saddles
the cavity and pickup routes are shielded.

The bass will come with a wide adjustable strap, some rubber Fender strap locks, and a thickly padded canvas Levy gig bag. Currently, the bass is strung with heavy gauge GHS Boomers and set up for tuned-down-a-half-step playing (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb), and the finish is metallic-red (it is a bit "road worn" and the bass more than functional - see pics). I had the bass set up professionally by a reputable local technician, so, the neck, truss rod, and frets are in good playing condition (to my hands and playing style, I don't have any fret buzz issues with this bass). The original owner sent it to me in pieces; between myself and my tech we got it cleaned up, upgraded, and set up beautifully - it turned out very nicely. There is a ding/chunk on the edge of the fingerboard on the G-string side (4th or 5th fret) - it doesn't affect playability or feel. Despite the road worn look of the bass, it looks awesome, and it is a tank of an instrument that is ready to perform and be recorded.
