YAMAHA TRBX305 5 String Bass – Pewter YAMAHA

 

Yamaha TRBX305-PTR 5-String Electric Bass Black – Pewter
Yamaha’s black TRBX300 Series 5-String Electric Bass gives you long sustained notes with its solid mahogany body, rosewood fingerboard, and maple/mahogany neck, along with a clean sound due to its hum-cancelling pickups. With its active genre-specific EQ you can dial in anything from an aggressive Stanley Clark slap tone to a Jamerson-style meat-and-potatoes Motown sound.

The TRBX300 features old-school-style large pickups with oversized polepieces and ceramic magnets to deliver a clear, defined, deep bass tone. Master volume, bass, treble, and blend knob plus an EQ switch allow you to dial in the tone that you want, from ’70s-style funk to ’80s-style metal and more.

The bolt-on neck joint teams up with the die-cast bridge for balanced string vibration and strength, delivering a clear, punchy, full, rich tone. The deep top cut-away allows for upper fret access, while the straight string pull from nut to machine head reduces overtones and helps you stay in tune.
