Yamaha BB235 BL 5-String Electric Bass Guitar Black

The Yamaha BB235 BL 5-String Electric Bass Guitar in Black is the perfect instrument for aspiring bassists looking for versatility, durability, and excellent playability. Featuring a solid alder body, this bass delivers a well-balanced tone with great resonance across the extended range. The Custom V3 ceramic pickups provide a clear, defined sound, while the control layout—two volume knobs and one tone knob—allows for versatile tonal shaping. The slightly thinner neck profile enhances comfort and playability, making it ideal for both traditional and modern styles. Lightweight open-gear tuners ensure excellent balance and tuning stability, complementing the bass’s lightweight body. Whether you're practicing, recording, or performing, the BB235 offers the reliability and tone that Yamaha is known for. At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the BB235 BL is a fantastic choice for players looking to explore the versatility of a 5-string bass with solid performance.
