Lovely vintage '78 Yamaha BB1000

This bass dates from 1978 according to the serial number.

Of course this '78 BB looks great with its natural finish and black pickguard. It has a nice (presumably) macassar ebony fretboard and classy inlays.

This bass plays and sounds just great. It has a fat neck profile which will not be anyone's taste, though it's lovely if you like it.

In its 40 years of existence, this BB has been well used. There are a lot of user marks to be found. It has some fretwear, but the neck can be played with low action. Technically the bass is all fine, the neck is straight and well adjustable. As you can see from the pictures, the screw on the E tuner is not original. It's now fitted with rotosound rounds.

The original hardcase is included in the sale.

Shippingcosts within Europe/UK start at €35, depending on destination and optional insurance. With insurance included it will probably be around €50. Please contact me for specific costs to your destination, and please wait with payment until we discussed shippingcosts.
