I had a Yamaha bass back in the day. A black BB-300. I bought it in LA took it back to London, Cardiff and then back to the US. Used it for years. I think I've still got the body somewhere. Not my dream guitar though.
Geddy Lee from Rush is one of my favourite bassists and he's changed his weapon as they say over the years
Fender Precision , various 8 string basses etc etc
