Yamaha BB735A BB Series 5-String Bass Guitar - Translucent Matte Black

Austin Bazaar is an authorized Yamaha dealer.

The new BB features an Alder/Maple/Alder multi-laminated body construction. The hard maple center increases body stiffness and accentuates midrange to cut through the mix of a band, and allows a more uniform transmission of vibrations between the body and the maple neck for unparalleled resonance and sustain

Miter bolting holds the neck closer and tighter to the body fusing these two separate components into one. Compared to a conventional bolt-on joint, miter bolting offers more efficient transfer of string vibration throughout the body.

BB's custom-wound pickups fit standard pickup cavities and feature a medium-high output with vintage voicing for great tone in any setting. BB basses come with pickups selected specifically to match the distinct character of each model in the series.

BB basses incorporate 'Diagonal Body Thru Stringing' which significantly reduces stress on the strings while transferring vibration to the body reliably and efficiently.

Yamaha's storied BB series of bass guitars delivers the superb sound and build quality that this series is known for in a smaller body with even better playability. Featuring a Alder/Maple/Alder construction for quicker transmission of sound from the strings to the body and neck, a firmer 6-bolt miter neck joint for improved stability, and custom-wound pickups that achieve higher output gain while retaining the classic BB voicing, the new BB basses are a testament to our commitment to musical excellence. Yamaha has always sought to offer nothing less than a pure bass guitar. Forgoing passing technical fads in favor in proven technologies and production techniques, the BB Series allows you to build your own sound rather than defining one for you. These latest models continue this tradition of reliable excellence in superbly crafted bass guitars that you can depend on to give you the sound you need, in any situation you throw at it.
