I had this bass for a little over a year, I just never fell in love with it. It looks great, plays great, sounds great, but it's just not for me
This is a pretty rare bass. Only made from 1972-73. Some people say it was never released in USA, only internationally. There are other basses, the SB-30 and SB-50, and some guitars. The SB-70 is the highest of them. The 70 in SB-70 is the price, 70, 000 yen. This is a medium scale bass, so not standard long scale. It looks like it has short scale ... more

Yamaha SB-2A, Coral Red, made in Japan1966. The Flying Samurai of guitars and basses were among Yamaha's first ever electric instruments. The shape is wildly original: there's shades of Mosrite and Fender, but really these are a beast all their own. 60s era Japan made stuff isn't always made with perfect precision, but this is beautifully executed; excellent woodwork, quirky but impressive hardware, well finished some stuff from this era by Teisco or Guyatone feels a little unrefined, but this ... more
