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 vibration 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 in the mid and upper registers. The new BB has a clear sound with a clear and defined contour.
Convertible bridge and saddle
String-through-body" construction is adopted, where 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. The BB Pro series is equipped with the Vintage Plus bridge, which is a new type of bridge with a vintage plus bridge. Vintage Plus bridge for sharp, 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 players to express themselves in a variety of ways, from crisp and clear sounds to warmer tones.
