A diverse array of high-caliber players took to these unique instruments, such as Van Halen's Michael Anthony, No Doubt's Tony Kanal, and legendary session ace Abraham Laboriel Sr. Their comfortably contoured bodies, clear-as-a-bell electronics, and immediately identifiable look keep these basses at the forefront of many different genres. The Yamaha BB734A is among the latest additions to this storied line of lauded instruments.Familiar construction with modern twists What truly sets Yamaha's BB basses apart from other basses are their comfortable and familiar contours. Carefully crafted from a carefully tuned combination of alder and maple, the BB734A 4-string's body boasts that same identifiable character. Its rounded edges and forearm and belly cuts seem to melt into your body while performing. The bass's 5-piece maple and mahogany bolt-on neck sings with a new level of punch and sustain, thanks for its 6-bolt miter design. And its slightly thinner profile is a welcome addition for more modern styles of players.Flexible and powerful electronics Whether you're a session player or a specialist, you know the benefits of a P/J pickup combination. The pickups in this BB734A are Yamaha's present-sounding YGD Custom V7 Alnico V single-coil design. Use the bass's active 3-band EQ and blend to dial in more of the neck pickup for that all-important P-style growl. And nail punchy fingerstyle tones with the bridge pickup — a favorite for many Sweetwater bassists. The BB734A's active/passive switch offers two different characters while also being a lifesaver if you find yourself without a battery.Yamaha BB734A Active Bass Guitar Features: Powerful, active version of a classic bass Modern appointments such as lightweight tuners for better balance 3-piece alder/maple/alder body offers a clear tone with plenty of punch YGD Custom V7 Alnico V P/J pickup setup is versatile and intuitive Active preamp with 3-band EQ will nail any tone you need Onboard active/passive switch instantly selects between 2 tonal characters 5-piece maple and mahogany bolt-on neck is incredibly stable The neck's 6-bolt miter neck joint ensures the bass sings with clarity and sustain Thinner neck profile for a more modern feel SpecificationDetail Number of Strings 4 Left-/Right-handed Right-handed Body Shape Yamaha BB Doublecut Body Material 3-piece Alder/Maple/Alder Body Finish Satin Polyurethane Color Translucent Matte Black Neck Material 5-piece Maple/Mahogany Neck Shape Slim BB profile Radius 10" Fingerboard Material Rosewood Fingerboard Inlay Bars Number of Frets 21, Medium Scale Length 34" Nut Width 1.57" Nut Material GraphTech Tusq Bridge/Tailpiece Vintage Plus String-thru Bridge with Convertible Brass Saddles, Steel Plate Tuners Lightweight Open-gear Neck Pickup VSP7n Alnico V Split-coil Bridge Pickup VSC7b Alnico V Single-coil Controls 1 x master volume, 1 x pickup balance, 3-band Active EQ, Active/Passive switch Strings D'Addario EXL, .045-.100 Case Included Gig Bag RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
