Well-constructed bass from Yamaha's highly-regarded BB-series. This one is Taiwan-built from 1986: the second version with the longer upper horn to improve strap balance but still carrying the reverse P-style pickup. Completely passive. Very good condition for its age with minor surface abbrasions and kind of nice finish wear-down on upper edge of lower bout. Slight oxidation on G-D-A tuners. E tuner was replaced by me with a NOS tuner directly from Yamaha. Everything works as it should, including truss rod. Strung with La Bella Deep Talkin' Flats. This is a handsome, built-like-a-tank P-bass with some nice bite. Comfortable weight at 9.3 lbs. Case is not included.
Given the rosewood fingerboard and CITES problems at present, I think I need to restrict this one to my Canadian compatriots. Shipping by Canada Post at actual cost.
