Road-Ready Construction
For the body on this bass, Hooky has gone for his favoured Alder and Maple 3-ply construction, which offers the kind of natural articulation that's ideally suited to his melodic, high-register playing style.
In addition to this, the 5-piece Maple / Mahogany neck is attached to the body via a six bolt join, offering incredible natural sustain and rock-solid reliability.
Assertive Tone
To help in delivering that awesome BB tone, Hooky and Yamaha have chosen a single reversed Split Coil pickup hooked up to an active preamp.
This VSP7n pickup is equipped with an Alnico V magnet - a metal renowned for offering increased articulation in a pickup - and not only does the preamp offer a 3-band EQ for accurate tone-shaping, but also sports an Active/Passive switch for when you want a more vintage sound.
