Discontinued.

John Myung returned to the Music Man camp shortly afterwards.

Ugh. They should really stick with Leo and the crew's designs at Music Man.

I've always enjoyed Nathan East's work. I've got a Nathan East style [not $ignature] Yamaha 5-string that plays well and sounds good.

The BBNE6 was introduced in late 2003. This 6-string signature BB was a custom shop one-off made exclusively for Nate himself as it was never intended for general production.

Nathan stopped using the BBNE6 in 2005 in favor of the polar white TRB6P.

For whatever reason (taxes?) they don't play many North American shows on any of the tours. Most of my favorite and best
boots are shows from Japan.

Nathan is primarily known for using Yamaha, Music Man and Fodera basses.

On the official BAD LOVE video he played a Fender Precision.

Thanks! Always liked Larry, too. Now I see Chuck Loeb has replaced him.

Good news, Eric Clapton just announced that Nate will rejoin the lineup after a 10-year absence.

The 50 Years Further On Up The Road world tour was the last for Willie Weeks after nearly 7 years as a touring and studio bassist.
