Yamaha BB435 TB

This BB435 5-string electric bass guitar puts all the legendary BB bass attributes into a clear-sounding passive design that offers the punch and rumble that can only be found in a low B string.
Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player, you'll love the neck's thinner profile and the way the bass stays balanced thanks to its lightweight tuning machines.
And modern appointments such as the sustain-enhancing 6-bolt miter neck joint and convertible bridge ensure you get the absolute most from your bass.
If you want a modern and affordable take on the BB bass, the BB435 5-string is for you.

Whether you're a session player or a specialist, you know the benefits of a P/J pickup combination.
The pickups in this BB435 5-string are Yamaha's present-sounding YGD Custom V5 Alnico V single-coil design.
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 BB435's passive volume/volume/tone control layout couldn't be easier to dial in.
