Members Iotanka tatanka Posted November 18, 2009 Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 Guys, anyone here at the forum any experience with the Yamaha BB714bs model? You know the one....big woofer humbucker at the end of the neck + P bass split in the traditional Fender P position! looks totally unlike the Yamaha attitude that Billy uses - but something about it appeals to me all the same. The price is good and Yamaha have a great reputation for providing great basses at low prices. I'm wondering...how does it sound? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jasper383 Posted November 18, 2009 Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 I would love to try one. Don't care for the looks, but the neck + P pickup is appealing. I have seen a couple on Ebay, and they haven't sold. Yamaha doesn't seem all that interested in getting them out to the public, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ender_rpm Posted November 18, 2009 Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 The BP review was really good, and it if plays like my BB fretless, it's prolly a keeper, but yeah, I haven't seen any in stores or anywhere you can mess with them.

Members bluedogaudio Posted November 18, 2009 Members Share Posted November 18, 2009 When I lived in L.A., I had the opportunity to meet Billy and I try this actual bass..... It was ridiculously easy to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
