Yamaha Pro BBP34 VW (Japan) - vintage white
Built in Japan, the YAMAHA Pro Series BBP34 VW solid body electric bass continues the BB tradition of great build quality and signature sound that won the series acclaim throughout its forty-year history.
The three pieces sandwich-style Alder/Maple/Alder body, five pieces Maple/Mahogany bolt-on neck and the presence and clarity of custom-wound pickups will inspire you to play your best when it really counts.
Alnico V magnet pickups tuned to deliver the classic BB vintage tone, slightly updated to provide a brighter sound that cuts through in live performance situations.
Equipped with a Vintage Plus Light bridge that incorporates “Diagonal Body Thru Stringing,” in which the 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. The strings can also be attached to the tail end of the bridge. In 5-string models the bridge is equipped with an offset low B string.
