Yamaha BB2000 - 1982

This is the best sounding bass I have ever played.

I was primarily a Fender Jazz man and had bonded reasonably well with my 2012 American Standard with the CS 60 pickups - my main gigging bass over a period of 5 years - but after purchasing this BB, I sold the jazz. The BB is far superior in all aspects. The sound is unbeatable with TI jazz flats. There is a growl in the low mids and harmonic sweetness in the high mids that is simply unmatched by any other bass I've ever played, including Fender, Musicman and Sadowsky.

The BB2000 just blows them all away.

The only drawback is that it's slightly heavy...over 5kg, but I can deal with it because it sounds phenomenal

SOUNDS

I rather play jazz, fusion as well (miles davis electric) and it is truly all-terrain!
Moreover, after many attempts, I have always this low after 20 years. I tried a lot but it is truly unique in its register and warm sea.
I amliori the instrument with two microphones and BP JB Benedetti. It sounds really hard now! ) This now I play on a Little Mark II head MarkBasse and a 4X10 Eden Nemesis. Mass murder (see overall opinion for this low rcemment modifications)

OVERALL OPINION

My bass for almost 20 years
Beautiful instrument (the price era FF 7000), which is largely known amricaines 15,000 bullets! (I tried)
Excellent qualitprix
Choice again without hsitation!

Update on me: I have done this low dfretter by a luthier in Marseille (pub: for people of 13, go to Olivier Chaix for all your maintenance guitar and bass. This guy is magic!) because there is little up with my microphone Benedetti, I felt she was totally without express freight ..

Bingo! I waited one month to do this work Olivier. In addition, he gave me a mountain knob to mix the bass and treble pickups. I come home to try the machine. I put my hands on the stick and magic, hear the sound I had in my wildest dreams. Dj empty, she sings alone. I plug the fine on a simple guitar amp. The sound of a first time! A grain, wood .. monstrous. The ITS Jaco but really "roots". In blind tests, it pushes all the vintage jazz usa 5000 e more. Olivier (the maker) could not believe it. Cettte bass is magic! I tried several times to sell it but strangely, I had never taken the plunge .. Now I know why!
