Fantastic Instrument!

I've owned two Yamaha basses in the past but neither were made in Japan. This BBP35 bass is on a whole other level. It exudes quality and professionalism. I was interested in adding 5-string P-bass to my arsenal and the Fender offering just didn't do it for me. I feel the PJ setup would be better for more clarity in the B string which is certainly the case with this bass. I played… read more my first gig with it last night and I was simply blown away by how easy to play and how powerful the pickups are. Every note just rang out with authority. This bass just immediately feels "at home" with me. The 3-knob configuration is quite versatile and yet so simple to obtain various tones from thumpy lows to sizzling highs. My bass was a demo (I still can't see why) that weighs just under 10 pounds. A shout out to Corey Elliot and associates for assistance during the shipping portion which I felt was a bit too lengthy. I blame FedEx and the Christmas rush for this. The Yahama BB series is a very underrated line in the bass world. I promise you won't be disappointed. Especially with the Pro series!

I've had this bass a couple of weeks now and have had it on a couple of gigs and rehearsals. The first thing I noticed when I played it at Sweetwater was how comfortable it was and that comfort translated into a smooth and easy playing feel on the gig. The tone is very big and thick and I had to turn down my usual amp settings. I have used the pickups individually with most of… read more the time spent on the split coil. This gives a P bass like sound that is articulated and thick. Using the bridge pickup thins things out a little for when you need a little growl and bite. One thing I very much appreciate is how even this bass plays across the fretboard. No woofy or boomy notes so it's much easier to play smoothly and musically. I've owned a lot of basses and have always liked passive basses so I'm glad to have a bass of this quality done passive. Thanks Yamaha.
