YAMAHA / BB734A Dark Coffee Sunburst [11]

A versatile model with switchable active/passive modes

For 40 years, the Yamaha BB Series has consistently pursued the sounds and features demanded by the music scene of each era, earning high praise from many bassists.
The new BB Series dramatically improves body resonance, delivering a sound that combines power with clear definition.
A bass that continues to evolve while honoring tradition. The Yamaha BB.
BB700 Series
A versatile model featuring a 3-band active EQ for precise sound shaping and switchable active/passive modes.
3-ply alder/maple/alder construction.
The miter-bolted neck joint creates a powerful resonance that integrates with the body.
Equipped with a convertible-type bridge that can be selected according to preference.
3-ply alder/maple/alder body construction
The new BB series features a 3-ply alder/maple/alder body construction.
The hard maple wood sandwiched between the alder on both sides enriches the midrange and produces a resonant tone that blends seamlessly into the band’s sound.
Furthermore, the use of maple for the body allows for direct sound transmission to the maple neck, reducing sound loss between the body and neck and ensuring that string vibrations are reliably captured.
Miter Bolting for a Secure Neck Joint
We employ a miter bolting system that adds two screws to secure the neck end at a 45-degree angle, in addition to the four screws that secure the neck vertically from the back of the body.
This firmly bonds the body and neck, delivering rich sustain and overwhelming body resonance.
Newly Developed YGD Custom V7 Pickup
Combined with the alder/maple/alder body construction, this pickup delivers a clear, cutting sound that won’t get lost in a band.
Equipped on the 700 Grade and Pro Grade models.
Active Circuit
Switch between active and passive sound shaping with the flip of a switch.
The treble knob on the 3-band EQ functions as a master tone control when in passive mode and is designed to prevent volume changes when switching modes.
High-quality gold-plated parts are used, and a battery alert LED is also included.
Controller Section
In addition to a 3-band active equalizer, it features an active/passive switch and a pickup balancer.
Convertible-type bridge & saddle
Features a "string-through-body" construction that transmits the energy of string vibration to the body with minimal loss.
The strings are routed at a 45-degree angle to reduce string stress, resulting in a clear, warm tone.
5-Piece Neck
Constructed from maple and mahogany, it delivers a crisp yet warm sound.
Design Neck
Thinner than the previous model, delivering superior playability.
Lightweight Tuners
The use of lightweight tuning pegs optimizes the overall balance.
