YAMAHA has been supporting the guitar manufacturing industry in Japan since its early days, and is considered to be the Japanese equivalent of Gibson.
The company has several models that are considered to be masterpieces, and this model is one of the most highly regarded in the BB series.
The BB series is famous for models such as the BB3000, which is highly regarded, but this model is the BB1024.
While the BB3000 features a through-neck joint, this model employs a bolt-on joint.
The body is made of alder with a spline joint structure, featuring slits at the center and both sides of the joint.
The neck is a 5-ply laminated neck made of maple and nyatoh, with a rosewood fingerboard.
The technique of combining multiple types of wood helps minimize left-right differences and individual variations, resulting in higher stability.
True to Yamaha's style, it has a tight sound, and the touch is light, giving the impression that it can produce powerful sound without requiring as much force compared to traditional Fender-style models.
Even with a light touch, the strings resonate well, allowing for stress-free playing.
The bolt-on neck provides a more familiar playing feel, especially during slapping, compared to the BB3000.
