BB714BS Lava Red
Billy Sheehan Signature Model

Designed by Billy Sheehan and Yamaha Artist Services Hollywood, the BB714BS takes all the best features of Billy's signature bass – the Attitude – and puts them in a package great for any style on any stage. 

Woofer pickup designed in collaboration with YGD (Yamaha Guitar Development)

In addition to the split pickup, the BB714BS carries a specially designed double humbucker installed at the neck position where it generates great low-end tone. The front humbucker is wired through a push-pull high-cut circuit that lets you choose between a traditional "Attutude" neck pickup tone with high-end, or a bass boosted ultralow 60's sound.

Bridge

Bridge and other hardware are black nickel plated which is in addition to looking great, is good for the environment as well since it has no lead.

Neck

Billy's BB 714BS comes with a neck that is slim, trim, and fast. The rosewood on maple neck is thinner and trimmer than the Attitude bass and offers greater playing comfort.
