I’m going to Guitar Alley in Tokyo in a few months, any must-see stores or tips?

The guitarist in the session was Paul Jackson Junior

that was fast! Thanks!

Can anyone in the world help me identify this headless bass? Abraham Laboriel playing it in 2018

My new Yamaha TRBX has the same problem.

Guys, let’s just take a moment to appreciate Mitsuru Sutoh’s pocket, feel, tone, improvisation, stage presence, humor… everything If I could place every note as exactly as him…

Glad you got converted to Yamaha BB, there’s nothing that can replace them! I only realized after buying a couple of BB’s myself like “this tone reminds me of Nathan East, or Abraham Laboriel, or David Huntgate!” Come to find out it’s THAT tone I’ve been hearing all my life!!

Look who’s gleaming in the sunlight

I’ve never heard of this one. When were they made? Body and pickups look like Vintage BB but with better string spacing at the bridge than BB5000’s. She’s a beaut!

One of the reasons I picked my bass was for its cute headstock

Ok here’s a couple pictures I found, they looked and functioned just fine on the 5000, and with the nut/collar thingy there are no gaps visible in the front. In the back, some gaps were visible but I don’t have pictures. The gaps never bothered me. Here’s measurements of the tuners. The dial is...

I have a set of perfect condition gold 707’s for 5 string that I had on a BB5000. Busy day today but I’ll measure them and get back to you.

Anybody have Oxalis 5 string pickups they don’t want?

Moon snob time- my wife was shopping in the big city with family last weekend so I went to Guitar Center to have fun. I spent 2 hours there but the whole time I wished I was at home with my Moon jazz bass and Bergantino’s! I even played a couple of $2000 instruments but my Moon and Yamaha BB’s...

I was seeing his credit to the album, it drives me crazy that this track shows nobody as bassist. No way that’s synth… I hope. Lol
