Manufacturer's Description

The Yamaha BB 735 5-String Bass Guitar, Translucent Matte Black expands the tonal range of the original by adding a 5th string, allowing players to create incredibly deep tone without de-tuning. Featuring a unique alder/maple/alder body, 'diagonal through-body stringing' and 6-bolt miter neck joint, the bass offers an incredibly durable construction and powerful sustain and resonance. The 5-piece maple/mahogany neck and smooth rosewood fingerboard delivers crisp tones, with a complex high end and punchy midrange. The neck's incredibly thin profile ensures players receive a comfortable, smooth performance, while the lightweight tuners keep the bass in tune. The BB 735A is equipped with powerful custom V7 pickups and an extensive range of controls, delivering incredibly versatile tones to suit a wide range of musical styles. Finished off in a stunning translucent matte black with a 3-ply black pickguard, the Yamaha BB 735A Bass Guitar is the ultimate versatile instrument, adapting to any genre and environment.
