Restricted to solely 30 basses constructed for all the world, The Music Zoo was one among six North American Yamaha sellers to hold the 30th Anniversary Attitude Bass!

Everybody who’s aware of the Yamaha Billy Sheehan Attitude Bass is aware of how particular it’s. From its twin pickups wired to stereo outputs, scalloped fretboard, and even two totally different sized fretwires relying on what a part of the fretboard you are enjoying on – there’s nothing else just like the Attitude Bass. For its 30th anniversary of the primary one being launched, Yamaha determined to honor Billy Sheehan with a run of 30 new Attitude Basses in a sunburst end, similar to the unique “Spouse” Bass which Billy had modified to hell and again for his personal private preferences!

How “The Spouse” turned the Attitude Bass

The authentic bass which Billy used as a template for experimentation was a Fender Precision Bass, stripped of its end and fairly actually modded to hell and again. Every modification was one thing he did whereas enjoying on the highway from 1971 all the best way as much as its retirement within the late 1980s. He added the neck humbucker pickup, added a chunkier profiled Tele Bass neck, a Hipshot D-Tuner to the low E string, scallopedthe ends of the fretboard, and even wired every pickup to a separate output. All of those mods made their option to the official manufacturing model of the Yamaha Attitude Bass that made it so profitable; the separate “woofer and tweeter” pickups, scalloped frets, fret sizes, and D-Tuna. There’s nothing fairly just like the Yamaha Attitude Bass anyplace else!
