New Bass!!

Yes, classy is the right word.

How does the neck feel in the hand? I've heard the yamaha profile is on the rounder chubby side as opposed to Lakland flat. True?

It's got a little meat to it, but not too much. I have a 1970 P-Bass - now that has some chunk to the neck. This Yamaha profile is quite comfortable.

Thanks Steve! I'll bring it! And I am recording with it on Thursday, I'll try to remember to solo some tracks to put up.

Congrats on the Latin Grammy's!

I know a guy that was either working with Memento or just knew them. Small world!

I have to ask: have you played "Easy Lover" on it yet?

That's one sharp lookin bass man.

Beautiful bass...
congrats.

I think these hover in the $2300 range new and around $1600 used. Definitely not a cheap bass by any means!

The bass belonged to Lats Kearns from the band "Memento" (personally never heard of them...)

What? You've got an original bass formerly owned by Lats Kearns of "Memento" and the bass is totally WHITE and you didn't bother to get this major Yammy endorser to take a big black magic marker and personally autograph the front of this bass?

Shame on you!



(superb looking bass though)

 

[Commreman]

There's a great pic in this month's BP of Danyell Morgan of the Robert Randolph band slappin' the snot out of the exact same bass, with the black hardware. Mojolicious indeed!

Yeah, not big on the autograph thing...LOL.
