A low end monster that growls, honks, barks and packs a real punch!
MrBarclay 22.01.2022
I had been browsing around for a new bass for my home studio. I wanted a solid well built bass with that classic P bass punch and low end growl without having to spend a lot of money. The Yamaha BB delivered!
This bass is solidly constructed with a great selection of tone woods that would rival most of its competitors.
The pickups on this bass are great! With the added bonus of the jazz pickup in the bridge to add a little honk and sizzle. The P&J configuration allows anybody to get great tone and be creative!

The only criticism I have of the Yamaha BB is some of the cheaper components it comes with. The bridge isn’t good the saddle springs buzz. However it’s a simple and relatively inexpensive upgrade.
Another problem I ran in to was the factory wiring the pickups weren’t grounded causing buzzing and crackling when amplified! Again this is a relatively easy fix.

To conclude this bass is almost perfect it plays really well, sounds great and is built to last. If these issues were resolved from the factory this bass would be 5 stars across the board from me!

Slightly mellower than a J-Bass, punchier than a P-bass
Scrufus 28.06.2023
It has a very "polite" tone, it's the only way I can really describe it. Thing to note is that mine came with one of the tuning pegs being slightly twisted, which made it rattle whenever I'd play anything without an amp. Quality in general is rather solid but there's a few little machining errors here and there, but it's not too noticeable. Unsure if this is common or not but I'm just putting this up for a little buyer beware.

Problèmes de peinture
NB98 11.08.2024
La basse est fonctionnellement excellente. Petite frayeur à l'ouverture du paquet car deux boutons de potards n'étaient pas du tout fixés mais c'est un problème simple à régler. La seule chose qui me peine c'est la qualité de la peinture du corps:
- retouches grossières
- inclusions

Ce problème étant seulement visible de près j'ai décidé de garder l'instrument qui est pour le reste de très bonne facture à ce prix, tout particulièrement le manche dont les frettes sont absolument irréprochables.
