Yamaha has been very good in the construction of many musical instruments, and their electric basses are some of the finest of the bunch. Popular amongst players, including the likes of even Billy Sheehan, Yamaha has created instruments are nearly every price point that exceed expectation. This model, the BB300 sports a classic Fender Precision style look, with a no frills, all black finish and simple thump-y pickup. The standard 34" scale length, the neck is very nice on this particular example, featuring a thick slab rosewood fingerboard, and a vintage tinted and decently flamed maple profile. A little bit of forward relief in the neck, it plays well and delivers the classic precision tone we all love - suitable for nearly any playing style. Includes simple gig bag.
