F/S: 5 string Yamaha BBG5 Bass

Sign in to disble this ad
Based on Nathan East series, for sale a yamaha BBG5 bass with "flame" top, alder body, 18 or 19mm spacing at bridge, passive jazz pickups, thin neck, easy player. These are harder to find nowadays. Same spacing on nut and bridge as the RBX 5 series basses. In used but great condition (8.5/10) no dings anywhere,pretty clean. I will accept paypal. ONLY $250 shipped Conus. "now that i look there is slight play wear where your thumb rests on back of the neck, everything looks great. there is some light discoloring of the gold tuners. This is a 1997 model and one of first BBs made of this series.

FINAL price drop, this bass is 34" and made in Taiwan according to serial number- 1997. Still a good quality bass, not high end quality like u get in the neck through 1980's instruments, c'mon ppl. Its more like on par with stuff like (schecters,esp, etc.)

If both of my cars had not gone out this week, I would get this today. If it lasts past New Years, I may get it any way!

I am in southern KS...not too terribly far from Springfield, MO. If we could work out a deal on shipping and include a decent gigbag we could have a deal.
