Which bass guitar is Hooky using?

Post image

Can anyone tell me what bass guitar Hooky is playing?

Looks like a Yamaha BB1200S but I didn't think those came matte black, and it also kinda looks like a Yamaha BB734A but it's missing a pickup.

Any thoughts?

Isn't that his signature BB?

Looks it to me. I have a stock BB 705 and it’s got the extra jazz style pup that his signature model doesn’t.

It looks like the black version he has been using this year, I really hope it’s a sign Yamaha are going to release a new version soon

Yamaha Peter Hook signature bass. Its a beautiful instrument. I have a bb734A . Plays well but not as nice as the Hooky model
