A performance-focused Yamaha BB bass built for players who want active/passive flexibility, upgraded hardware, and powerful modern BB punch with dependable stage and studio consistency.
Active/passive electronics provide expanded tonal flexibility and fast on-the-fly control
Custom V7 Alnico V pickups deliver punchy lows, focused mids, and articulate note definition
6-bolt miter neck joint improves sustain, resonance, and neck stability
Vintage Plus bridge supports both top-load and string-through-body setups
Alder/Maple/Alder body construction enhances resonance, clarity, and attack
The Yamaha BB734A brings modern flexibility and upgraded electronics to the BB platform while preserving the punch, balance, and reliability that define the series. Designed for players who move between recording sessions, rehearsals, and demanding live performance environments, the BB734A combines active tonal shaping with the simplicity and immediacy of passive operation in a single streamlined instrument.
Its custom V7 Alnico V pickup system delivers strong low-end presence, focused mids, and excellent note articulation across a wide range of styles. The active EQ section provides additional tonal control for modern performance situations, while the passive mode retains the natural warmth and punch of the BB platform when a more traditional response is preferred. This flexibility allows the BB734A to move easily between funk, rock, pop, fusion, session work, and heavier modern applications.
The alder/maple/alder body construction enhances resonance and clarity while maintaining strong low-frequency response and balanced overall weight. Yamaha’s updated BB body shape improves comfort and ergonomics without sacrificing the traditional visual identity that has made the BB Series a long-standing favorite among working bass players.
A major upgrade within the BB734A platform is Yamaha’s 6-bolt miter neck joint, which improves body-to-neck energy transfer for enhanced sustain, resonance, and long-term stability. Combined with the 5-piece maple and mahogany neck construction, the bass feels exceptionally solid and dependable during extended rehearsals, studio sessions, and touring use. The Vintage Plus bridge further improves feel and flexibility by supporting both top-load and string-through-body stringing configurations.
The Fired Red finish gives the BB734A a bold stage-ready appearance with rich visual warmth and strong Yamaha character. Its deeper red tone pairs naturally with the BB body shape and chrome hardware, creating a bass that feels expressive, energetic, and performance-focused while still maintaining the grounded identity of the BB Series.
