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 BB435 is among the latest additions to this storied line of lauded instruments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eFamiliar construction with modern twists\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat truly sets Yamaha's BB basses apart from other basses are their comfortable and familiar contours. Carefully crafted from balanced-sounding alder, the BB435 5-string boasts that same identifiable character. Its rounded edges and forearm and belly cuts seem to melt into your body while playing. The bass's 5-piece maple and mahogany bolt-on neck sings with a new level of punch and sustain, thanks to its 6-bolt miter design. And its slightly thinner profile is a welcome addition to a more modern style of players.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eYamaha BB435 5-string Bass Features:\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStraightforward version of a classic bass\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e5-string design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eModern appointments such as lightweight tuners for better balance\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAlder body offers a clear tone with plenty of punch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePassive YGD Custom V5 Alnico V P\/J pickup setup is versatile and intuitive\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e5-piece maple and mahogany bolt-on neck is incredibly stable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe neck's 6-bolt miter neck joint ensures the bass sings with clarity and sustain\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSimple to use volume\/volume\/tone control layout\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThinner neck profile for a more modern feel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch5\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Shape: Yamaha BB Double cut\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLeft-\/Right-handed:Right-handed\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNumber of Strings:5\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eColor: Black\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Material: Solid Alder\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBody Finish: Gloss Polyurethane\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Material:5-piece Maple\/Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Shape: Thinner BB profile\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRadius:23.62\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Material: Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFingerboard Inlay: Dots\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNumber of Frets:21, Medium\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eScale Length:34\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Width:1.692\"\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNut Material: GraphTech\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge\/Tailpiece: Vintage Plus Light convertible bridge, steel saddles\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTuners: Lightweight, open-gear\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNeck Pickup: VSP5n Alnico V Split Single-coil\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBridge Pickup: VSC5b Alnico V Single-coil\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eControls:2 x volume, 1 x master tone\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStrings:45-130\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Number: BB435 BL\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"YAMAHA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47037527359776,"sku":"G55-BB435BLK","price":9835.0,"currency_code":"BWP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0822\/7890\/8192\/products\/G55-BB435BLK-02-QQJJ.jpg?v=1698391295","url":"https:\/\/9db465-3.myshopify.com\/products\/g55-bb435blk","provider":"Silver Star ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
