Yamaha BB

Hi folks,
I love the yamaha playability and feel, been thinking of purchasing neither a BB 2024 or a BBP34, and was wondering...does any of these sound warm sounding? I love yamaha, but with my experience with a different BB, it doesn't sound warm, but very focused and agressive...

Would love to hear opinions.

Thanks.
Noam.

I recently acquired a 2017 BB435. I would describe the tone as being "meaty and full-bodied" but not "aggressive".

EDIT: I should add it's wearing GHS Pressurewounds right now.
