Yamaha BBPH Peter Hook Signature - BB Red

The Yamaha Peter Hook Signature BB celebrates one of bassdom’s most influential innovators. Peter Hook pioneered a singular melodic, high-register style that defied convention and became a defining aspect of the sound of Joy Division and later New Order—two of rock’s most iconic bands. Throughout his 40-plus-year career, Hook has favored Yamaha BB basses for their assertive sound and durable construction. Yamaha is proud to offer the Peter Hook Signature BB, which combines elements of his favourite BB1200S and the BB734A he currently plays on tour with Peter Hook & The Light.
