The BBNE2 was designed by Yamaha and Nathan East, bassist for Eric Clapton and Phil Collins. For years, the Yamaha BB Series basses have defined the best-in-bass technology, building a reputation for their excellent tone and sustain, comfortable feel and quiet performance. This BBNE2 Nathan East signature model carries on the tradition with a slim-line, solid alder body topped with premium maple for unsurpassed looks, comfort and tone. A thru-body maple and mahogany neck offers the ultimate in tone and stability, while its ebony fretboard has a smooth violin-type feel. Active electronics include 2 Alnico V-Stack pickups and a Nathan East NE1 parametric EQ for maximum sound-shaping capability. It also comes with a die-cast gold hardware and white tuners.

The BBNE2 includes a hardshell case.
