The official "Show your basses" thread part 19!

Yamaha BB425x Fretless. All-original. Removed control metallic cover. It's a non-standard yamaha bass lineup, a rare!

Sweet! How ya diggin that BTB?


Haven't played it too much lately, because the fretboard dried out and left the fret ends sticking out to painful degree. I've been rehumidifying it to see if I can get them sorted without having to have the nice rounded ends filed, and then it'll need a set up pretty badly.

Before all that nonsense, though, I loved it. The quality is good, and the pickups are great. I'm thinking about throwing some Nordies in the Bacchus, too.
 
My newest addition on the left: '12 Am Special Precision Bass in Honeyburst, and my gf's USA Peavey Foundation 5, which I've taken for my own since she doesn't play anymore. In the process of replacing the electronics in the Foundation. It's certainly seen better days. Also installed new pickups the P. Made by a luthier/pup builder here in NH. Killer response on the lows and upper mids
