But I`ve noticed always a great bass sound when I saw bands live playing with a Yamaha bass. Old or reissue, they sounded really good! Get one if you find one for good money! They also look unique on stage! Proud member in the league of Yamaha Bananas. — Twang cheers! Ralf Kilauea www.kilaueas.de https://kilaueas.bandcamp.com/album/touch-my-alien Top

I've got a much more expensive bass but always come back to my Yamahas. Top

And if you suddenly decide you don't like it you know where you can sell it... just don't tell my girlfriend, she doesn't understand ;) Top
