Yamaha Electric Bass BB Series Flagship Model "BBP" underwent a minor model change!

Alder/maple/alder 3-ply body construction
The new BB series has a 3-ply alder/maple/alder body construction. The hard maple sandwiched between the alder on both sides enriches the mid-range and makes the body sound more integrated into the band's sound. The use of maple for the body material enables direct sound transmission with the maple neck, reducing sound loss between the body and neck and ensuring that the strings receive the vibrations.

Miter bolting system
In addition to the four screws that secure the neck vertically from the back of the body, two additional screws secure the neck end at a 45-degree angle from the back of the body. The body and neck are tightly adhered to each other, creating an intense sound that unites the body and neck. This method produces less energy loss from string vibrations than a normal bolt-on joint, resulting in rich sustain and overwhelming body resonance.

Newly developed pickups
The new BB is equipped with a new pickup developed uniquely for each model, which inherits the traditional BB sound and improves the output gain of the mid and upper registers. The new BB has a clear sound with a clear and distinct contour. The pickups are suited to the unique character of each model, allowing for the creative and versatile expression demanded by the player.

Convertible bridge and saddle
String-through-body" construction is adopted, in which the strings are passed through from the backside of the body. Compared to the conventional method of passing strings vertically through the back of the body, the strings are passed through at a 45-degree angle, which transmits the energy of the string vibration to the body without any loss. In the general back-through method where the strings are passed through the body directly under the saddle, there is a large amount of vibration loss at the plate and saddle, making it difficult to transmit string vibrations efficiently and reliably.

The BB Pro series is equipped with a Vintage Plus bridge for sharp and clear sound. The brass saddles of the Vintage Plus bridge provide deep bass, while the steel plates provide a bright sound. Metal parts such as springs and screws are made of stainless steel for resistance to rust and corrosion. Furthermore, the different contact points of the semi-circular saddles allow for a variety of player expression, from crisp and clear sounds to warmer tones.
