Great in depth review. I recently picked up my 1st Yamaha bass after 52 yrs w/ Fenders. I chose the BB434 because I prefer passive and it was light at 8.0 lbs. I love everything about it, especially the neck and pups. If I do change anything I may have the frets filed down some and re-crowned, I'm used to vintage small frets, but these sure do the job so maybe not ! I have to say I think this is the best value bass your money can buy...total pro bass. It's beautiful and balances perfectly.

@@therecklessempire I also noticed a while ago that the bass player from Myrath, Anis Jouini, plays the 5 string version on that bass and is featured on many of their songs and has this amazing pressence within their mixes. kzread.info/dash/bejne/k6WM06ufqcSYkrw.html

Had a Fender American Deluxe Jazz Bass V that was terrific and I couldn’t bond with it. Listed my needs and wants in hopes a Fender would cut it. Yamaha BB735A checked every box and does it for less than $1K shipped with a gig bag. In all honesty the BB735A is all any bassist would ever need. If you want a 4, you just heard the 734. It’s as fine sounding as the high dollar examples. Vid was well done and would be extremely helpful to those who are deciding which way to go. I’ve played Fender mainly for 50 years. The Yamaha replaced the expensive 5 and quickly replaced my No.1. The Yamaha BB735A is now my go to for any gig.

Thanks for watching marc

Great basses. You’re wrong about the LTD2 neck attachement though : it has 4 bolts and is VERY sturdy. Just take the pickguard and the neck pickup off and you’ll see ;-)

Hi, you are correct, the other 2 are under the pickup and pickguard.... Thanks for calling this out, I always forget they are there.

Is there any different on the neck profile between the Att 3 bs att 2? And how about the weight between those two

@therecklessempire

I haven't noticed any difference in the weight or the neck profiles. The neck on the III is nicer to play, and the pre-aging process that Yamaha does to it seems to make a difference to the tone.

I like the bb 734

Hey!! the BB is an outstanding instrument.

The Attitude II from memory wasn't nearly as expensive as the Attitude III - those things are mega bucks!

Hi triv, thanks for watching. You are right, the Ltd II was about half the price of the Ltd 3, but with the way Yamaha have aged the timber, and the updates to the neck joint, etc, it is definately a premium instrument, up there with the MM Stingray, etc.

I’ll spend the extra money for a Japanese made P34 through a Yamaha owned Ampeg amp!

I agree totally Jeff.... If I didn't have the Attitude I would definitely go with the P34.
