Product Overview
Yamaha’s Value- and Performance-packed TRBX Bass
Loaded with professional features, the Yamaha TRBX604FM upends the performance and value proposition for electric bass guitars. A classic tonewood combination of solid alder and stunning flamed maple delivers punch, bite, and sustain by the truckload. Meanwhile, a comfortable 5-piece maple/mahogany neck combines excellent playability with rock-solid stability. In the electronics department, Yamaha’s YGD H5 pickups and onboard preamp serve up wide-ranging sonic punch and the flexibility of studio-grade 3-band EQ. The TRBX604FM’s tonal stability is reinforced with a high-mass die-cast bridge and an innovative headstock design that provide optimal vibration transfer and tuning stability along with epic sustain.
A classic tonewood recipe
Yamaha specified premium tonewoods for the TRBX604FM. A solid alder body provides a balanced yet punchy tonal foundation, yielding equal doses of lows, mids, and highs. A stunning flamed maple top enhances the TRBX604FM's basic tone with brightness, bite, and sustain. And the added snap and warmth provided by its 5-piece rosewood-capped maple/mahogany neck is the final ingredient in the TRBX604FM's classic tonal recipe.
Flexible active 3-band EQ
Plug in, and you'll experience ample output and dynamic sensitivity by way of these pickups' quad-pole-piece design and robust Alnico V magnets. Beyond that, the TRBX604FM is loaded with an audiophile-quality preamp with 3-band EQ. This flexible circuit offers a level-matched output in both passive or active modes, and tone-switching circuitry that moves seamlessly from treble control to master passive tone.
Comfortable 5-piece maple/mahogany neck
Bassists searching for extreme comfort will savor playing the TRBX604FM. Yamaha’s acclaimed TRBX neck design combines a comfortable profile with 5-piece maple/mahogany construction for excellent tone and stability. This bass’s refined neck joint reflects the perfect balance of strength, vibration transfer, and upper-fret access. Finally, you’ll benefit from superior tuning stability and reduced overtones, thanks to a headstock that virtually eliminates lateral string tension.
