? Yamaha BBNE2 White — Description
The Yamaha BBNE2 White is a premium 5-string bass designed in close collaboration with legendary session bassist Nathan East. It combines refined looks, cutting-edge electronics, and superb playability, making it ideal for top-level stage and studio work.
This bass features a neck-through-body design, with a 5-piece maple and mahogany neck that runs through a maple top and alder body. This construction provides exceptional sustain, clarity, and a rich, balanced tone across all registers.
The ebony fingerboard adds a smooth, fast playing feel and a touch of luxury, accented by abalone oval inlays.
The electronics are among its standout features: two custom Alnico V stacked humbuckers provide powerful, articulate, noise-free sound, while the active 3-band EQ and Nathan East’s signature mid-cut switch give you unmatched tonal flexibility. With this setup, you can easily shape your sound to suit any genre—from warm and smooth jazz tones to tight, punchy funk or pop.
Other premium touches include the BPZ-7 individual bridge for outstanding resonance and precise intonation, gold Gotoh tuners with pearl buttons, and elegant gold hardware throughout.
