Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Yamaha’s TRBX605FM brings a five-string layout, 34-inch scale and 24 medium frets to a Natural Satin solidbody bass. Its alder body carries a flamed-maple top, while the five-piece maple/mahogany bolt-on neck and rosewood fingerboard form the playing platform. Two Yamaha pickups work through volume, blend and high/mid/low controls, with a mini toggle for active/passive operation. A fixed, five-saddle adjustable bridge and die-cast tuners complete a bass with a broad set of on-instrument controls.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Playing bass parts that move higher up the neck, using all 24 medium frets.
Consider the trade-offs
