I would definetely try to buy another bass like this if it was ever stolen. I love the body shape, but i think it could be better with different strings and pickups.
Price: $199.00 (new)
Where Obtained: Musicians Friend
The body isn't abstract, but is definetely different from all the other yamahas that Ive seen. It has a maple neck and a samurai headstock. It has two J style pickups.
The stock strings didn't feel right, and made it hard to play, but I bought some DR Bootzillas and now it plays like a dream, and is great for slapping.
THis bass sounds pretty good, but not as good as other basses that I've played that had EMGs and Bartolinis.
This bass has never let me down, and I live in Vermont, where it gets very cold, but suprisingly hot in the summer. The hardware still works quite well.
