Yamaha BB 435 5-String Bass, Black - Secondhand

Full Description

All the tone

A perfect pairing. The combination of Custom V5 P-style and J-style bass pickups lets you explore a wealth of bass tones. With a smooth, beefy P-style pickup in the neck, your basslines will be rich and warm – perfect for blending in with the mix. And the J-style pickup in the bridge position offers a bright, crisp voicing with plenty of punch and articulation. Made from alnico V, both pickups have plenty of output and bite, too. Whether you want a sweet, vintage voicing or a more modern, powerful tone, you can use these pickups to get exactly what you want.

Prime playability

Master the neck. Made from maple, it shines with great playability and brilliant tone. The smooth surface allows your hand to access the entire fretboard with ease, and the three ply maple and mahogany wood adds balance to this bass's tone for a superbly dynamic resonance. Sitting atop the neck is a rosewood fretboard, which offers you the ability to make smooth fret transitions. And it has a decent level of sustain. These features will get you playing smoothly and with precision for the best sonic results.
