What truly sets Yamaha’s BB basses apart from other basses are their comfortable and familiar contours. Meticulously crafted from a carefully tuned combination of alder and maple, the BB734A body boasts that same identifiable character. Its rounded edges and forearm and belly cuts fit you like a glove whether you’re rocking hard onstage or sitting in your studio overdubbing. The bass’s 5-piece maple and mahogany bolt-on neck sings with a new level of punch and sustain, thanks to its 6-bolt miter design. And its slightly thinner profile is a welcome addition for more modern styles of players.
