    Yamaha BB3000S vs. BB3000?

    I was curious and followd the link to read. I don't think the info about nut length is accurate when it comes to BB3000. I am relying on my research and current collection. I Have 2: BB5000, 8: BB3000, 1: BB1000 (neck thru), 1: BBX, and 7 lower model BBs that are bolt on necks. The 5000 are both...

    What’s the difference between a Yamaha BB5000 AF and BB3000AF?

    I do have a question though and hope maybe you could shed light. I've been running across posts referring to limited re-isses / reproductions of 3000 series but don't find any solid information. Is this true and is there an identifier in the model number or some other way to identify?

    Yamaha bb3000s parts

    Yamaha bb3000s parts

    Maybe reach out to the number of Japanese vendors posting on ebay and reverb. I'd just love to know where to GET a fretted BB3000. (You know...those covers are on lesser models. Worse case is pick up cheap axe with the cover and go from there?).
