Yamaha TRBX605FM 5-String Bass Guitar

The TRBX605FM 5-string Yamaha bass guitar features active circuitry with all the funk, thump, clarity, and low-end tone you’ll ever need! The double-coil custom pickups on the Yamaha TRBX605FM bass are matched well with the preamp design, giving them the power to capture every nuance in your playing style. Tone, flexibility, and playability are what this Yamaha bass is all about. The advanced design of the electronics on the Yamaha TRBX605FMDRB, offers a matched output, both in passive or active mode, and a tone-switching circuitry that moves seamlessly from treble control to master passive tone.  High-quality, gold-plated parts are used for important signal chain contacts, providing increased conductivity, reliability, and tone. The LED low battery alert on the back panel helps prevent a sudden power loss during a performance - a situation that’s not good for business. The refined neck joint shape of the TRBX605FM was developed through hundreds of hours of testing, and balances strength, vibration transfer, and upper-fret access. It combines a comfortable profile with 5-piece maple/mahogany-laminated construction for outstanding stability and excellent tone. Straight string pull from the nut to the machine head eliminates lateral tension and provides superior tuning stability while reducing unwanted harmonic overtones. Additionally, the 43mm nut width provides fast, comfortable playability for almost any style of playing.  A high-mass, die-cast bridge on this TRBX605FM Yamaha bass transfers string vibrations efficiently to the body producing a full, rich tone combined with excellent adjustability and durability; and the 18mm saddle spacing gives you outstanding playability for technical slap or finger styles. Yamaha - no newcomer to guitar manufacturing - has been manufacturing fretted instruments since the mid-1900s, and the TRBX605FM electric bass guitar is one of their latest achievements. The Yamaha TRBX605FM 5-string bass guitar looks, sounds, and plays like an expensive boutique electric bass, but without the expensive price tag. Call Andy’s and gets yours ordered today.
