Yamaha BB734A Bass Guitar – Matte Trans Black Yamaha

The Yamaha BB734A 4 string bass is versatile, durable, and sounds superb. Finished in a Matte Trans Black, it features a Alder/Maple/Alder multi-laminated body, a 6-bolt Miter neck joint which holds the neck closer and tighter to the body fusing these two separate components into one. Alnico magnets produce a fat yet penetrating tone that works in combination with the unique Alder/Maple/Alder construction, a specially tuned active/passive circuit for fine tonal control and extreme flexibility, active pickups with a 3 band EQ, a pickup balancer, and an active/passive switch, for enhanced versatility and flexibility when shaping your sound.

Equipped with the Vintage Plus Bridge, which incorporates “Diagonal Body Thru Stringing,” where strings are angled at the saddle and pass through the instrument to the bridge at a 45º angle, as opposed to the traditional vertical stringing method which places more stress on the strings. Diagonal Body Thru Stringing significantly reduces this stress while transferring string vibration to the body reliably and efficiently.

A 5-ply maple and mahogany laminated neck, in a bolt-on design that delivers a sharp attack, and quick response. This durable construction resists warping and twisting and adds the tight, penetrating character of maple combined with the warmth of mahogany to the instrument’s tone. Lighter weight tuners offer a better balance and complement the overall feel, providing a perfect match for the smaller, lighter body of the new BB.
