Yamaha BB425X 5-String Electric Bass | Black

Pre loved Yamaha BB425X 5-String Electric Bass – Black

Solid, no-nonsense 5-string from Yamaha. The BB425X is one of those underrated workhorses—passive setup, big low end, and built like it’ll survive a tour van.

Classic BB layout with a P/J pickup combo, so you’ve got that punchy Precision-style thump plus a bit of Jazz-style bite when you need it. Handles the low B properly—tight, clear, doesn’t turn to mush.

Neck’s on the chunkier side for a 5-string, but super solid. Feels more like a proper “instrument” than a lightweight toy—some players love that, some don’t.

What You’re Getting

• 5-string setup with a strong, defined low B
• Passive electronics – simple, reliable, sounds good
• Split-coil + single-coil (P/J style) pickups
• Rosewood board, 21 frets
• Classic BB body shape

The Vibe

Bit of a sleeper. Sits somewhere between a P-Bass and a modern 5-string—tight, punchy, and versatile without getting too hi-fi or sterile.

If you want a solid gigging 5-string that just works, this is a good shout.
