General
The backbone of Joy Division and New Order has joined forces with Yamaha to build the monumental Limited Edition BB Peter Hook Signature Bass. This towering legend has blended all of his favourite bits of the BB1200S and BB734A models and reinforced the resulting mash-up with the unshakable stability of a three-piece body built out of a layer of maple sandwiched between two layers of alder. For the sake of certainty, the 5-piece maple and mahogany neck is secured by an extra-strong 6-bolt Mitre joint, sealing up the tonal consistency once and for all.
The BBPH Peter Hook with Reversed Split-Coil
The singular, uncompromising character of this bass is undeniably shaped by the reversed VSP7n Split single-coil. Engage the active circuit of this unique pickup and tweak the result using the active three-band EQ controls, and if you prefer things fully passive, simply flip the fitted mini-switch. The set of lightweight open-gear machine heads only serve to complete the solid picture. The Yamaha BB Peter Hook Bass is definitely an instrument made for the genuine bass-buff, especially since only a few will ever be produced. So if you're already drooling, you'd better start counting those pennies right now.
