Published on 08/22/05 at 15:00I bought the bass through a swedish website, where people sell used instruments and other musical stuff(http://www.vendolin.se/) and paid 5000 sek. I'd guess that's like 600-650 us dollars.
I had been thinking about buying a 6-string for a while, and I thought it would be smart to take this opportunity (Not sure how to spell that :P)
This basses aren't very common here in sweden (I'm swedish by the way) and they usually cost a lot of money (a new one costs about 15000 sek in some music stores around here). So I'm quite peased with the price :D
It plays VERY well, much easier than I thought, and it sounds AMAZING!!
It has a very wide range of tones too, due to the 3.band EQ.
You can feel the great quality the first time you hold it!
I like just about everything i think :D
Well, there's nothing i really don't like about this bass.
I can imagine that some players wouldn't like the neck. it's a little thinner then most 6-strings, but I don't think that's a problem. I dont't slap so much on this bass anyway, and I it really allows you to play faster.
You can get fret noise quite easy (depending on the thickness of the strings) , but they aren't really loud, It just sounds natural to me.
Very good quality. I felt that the first time I held it. Really nice tuners and bridge, not some cheap shit that eats new strings, if you know what I mean...
Great ebony fretboard (24 frets) and extremely beautiful mother-of-pearl-inlay.
The 3-piece bolt-on-neck is very good and as tough as a swede
due to the two thruss-rods.
I think this is one of the best 6-string basses for this price. Love it!
Go Yamaha!
