YAMAHA SB-800S MIJ Original Designed Bass

This model made by Yamaha between 1976-79.
I have the original SB-500 as my collection.
The difference between both basses are body material.
SB-500S is Nato solod body. SB-800S has Maple + Nato + Maple as sandwitch body.
I felt this bass has a bit tight tone compare with SB-500S.

The pick ups are same with SB-500S.
So, the body material made the price difference.

There are not many scratches and dents. It is better looking than other my stock.
The frets were a bit worn, but still O.K. and the neck is fine with 43.45mm nut width.


This sandwitch body is providing us a heavy bottom tone good high tone.
It is 4.82Kg. The knobs are not original.

It can be used for heavy bottom Rock !!!
This bass is over 30 years old bass. The body is dried very much.

We are going to ship this bass with Yamaha original hardcase.

Please try JV Yamaha Bass!
