Overview
TRBX170EW features a laminated exotic wood top for high playability, and its matching headsets apart its looks from other basses. With the quality you trust Yamaha for, it is a superb bass guitar for practice, live and home recordings.
The 4-control circuit includes controls for Master Volume, Balance, and a 2-band equalizer for creating a more aggressive tone.
Body
TRBX features a sculpted solid mahogany body, with a mass-optimized 3D design for the optimum balance between tone and the comfort of perfect weight distribution.
Neck
TRBX’s neck design combines a fast, ultra-comfortable profile with a 5-piece maple/mahogany laminated construction for outstanding stability and excellent tone.
Neck Joint
TRBX uses a precision-fitted bolt-on neck joint for maximum adjustability and a clear, punchy tone. Developed through hundreds of hours of play-testing, the refined neck joint shape perfectly balances strength, vibration transfer and upper-fret access.
Headstock
Straight string pull from nut to machine head eliminates lateral tension, providing superior tuning stability and reducing overtones.
Nut
38mm (4-string) or 43mm (5-string) nut widths give fast, comfortable playability for any style.
Bridge
A high-mass die-cast bridge efficiently transfers string vibrations to the body for full, rich tone combined with excellent adjustability and road-tested durability. 18mm string spacing on the 5-string model offers outstanding playability for technical slap or finger styles.
Output Jack
Yamaha’s metal plate-mounted standard jack socket offers superior durability and easy maintenance.
