The BBP34 is a Made in Japan flagship 4-string model that has evolved and renewed the traditional BB silhouette!
With an eye on the modern music scene, the BBP34 is a Made in Japan flagship renewal model that brings together the know-how of numerous technical research and product development projects, is manufactured by skilled craftsmen, and is a fusion of the latest technology, unique structure, and craftsmanship, and is sent out from a domestic factory with the high quality that only Yamaha can offer.

The body of this model, which is the successor to the BB2000 series, has been redesigned to a smaller body shape while maintaining the previous silhouette, and uses a three-layer laminate body with alder/maple/alder wood sandwiched in between, making it stronger, more durable, and producing a punchy, crisp sound. In addition, the instrument has been treated with the unique technology 'I.R.A.', which promotes the vibration of the instrument, increasing the sound transmission and vibration efficiency of the wood itself, promoting the extension of mid-low range components, and accelerating the rise and decay of high range components, resulting in a smooth and deep sound.
The neck is a 5-piece laminated neck made of maple and mahogany, which has been refined to have a slimmer grip shape compared to the BB2000 series, and the fingerboard is made of rosewood. The head shape has also been changed to a smart size to match the smaller body shape, and lightweight pegs are used to maintain optimal body balance, giving the instrument a slimmer silhouette and a better fit.

The neck joint is a 6-bolt miter joint used in the ATTITUDE LTD III (Billy Sheehan model), where the bolts are driven at a 45-degree angle toward the neck to create a stronger bond between the neck and body, resulting in a strong sound. The miter stringing bridge passes the strings through the back of the body at a 45-degree angle from the bridge saddle, which reduces string stress while firmly transmitting string vibrations to the body, and the unique design and structure further improves the rich sound of the instrument.

The newly designed pickup was tested with more than 100 prototypes in the development stage with the new BB, and after trial and error with the wire, magnet, rotation speed, and bobbin shape, it is equipped with a high-grade Alnico 5 magnet PJ pickup that can produce vintage tones while improving output. The cylindrical pole piece is used to reduce noise, and the pickup cover has a generic design and can be customized to your liking. The control section has been changed from a pickup selector to a 2 volume/1 tone specification, allowing fine adjustment of each pickup balance.

This model has a balance that fits the modern music scene with the technical structure and manufacturing method cultivated in the BB2000 series and later models, a powerful sound character with a deep and rich sound, and a balance that fits the modern music scene. It has a warm low range of the passive bass, a mid range that sends a smooth and solid sound image, a high range with a clear but calm tone, and a wide range but straight sound, and has been further brushed up for high performance.
YAMAHA's passion for musical instrument manufacturing is fully apparent in the performance, careful finishing and attention to detail, but the price range is significantly lower than before, and this Made in Japan flagship model is now available for a wider range of players!

This is a special price item with scratches and paint defects on the exterior, but it does not affect the playability.
The image is a sample. Due to the nature of the material, the grain/color will vary for each piece.
