Yamaha TRBX304 Electrical Bass - Black

Hubby bought this as his first bass, after learning accoustic and electric, and reports that it has a beautiful mellow sound that is a delight to hear. It is gentle on the fingers and light, and pleased him immensely. Highly reccomended for your first bass guitar (just remember to buy an amplifier for it)

This is my baby! I've owned many guitars and basses over the years, but this is one of the best I've ever bought and played! Plays great , sounds fantastic, extremely versatile tones.

Amazing quality forn he price. I think its one the best entry level base you can buy at the moment.

I'm not sure how many stars to give... The delivery was a bit botched, but the bass itself is excellent. Evidently there was a mixup between Austin Bazaar and FedEx. The tracking number was issued at 10:45 one morning., but the package wasn't picked up by FedEx until 5:00 p.m. the next day, resulting in my bass being delivered a day late. The bass was double-boxed. The outer box was immaculate, the inner box (from Yamaha) was pretty torn up, but the bass itself was fine. My bass is a lot darker than the photos on the website, almost black. The lighter sunburst color is really only visible under the strings. I wish that weren't the case, but it's still a pretty instrument. I suppose that it's the luck of the draw, and for an inexpensive instrument, I shouldn't complain too loudly. When it arrived, the strings were so slack that my tuner couldn't register the notes. I tuned it and played for a few minutes, then was called away for an hour. When I got back to it, all the strings were a bit flat. Over the next day or two this continued, with the strings a little less flat each time, so evidently, they'd never been brought up to proper tension. I think that's a good thing, the strings should last me longer. The last couple of days it's stayed in tune, so the tuners weren't slipping. As far as I can tell, the neck is straight and the bass is intonated well. I'm waiting for a gig bag to be delivered, then I'll have it properly set up by a guitar tech. I'm a guitar player who decided to try bass. A couple of years ago, I bought a Rumble 40 amp and an Ibanez Mikro (short scale bass) because its scale length isn't much longer than a guitar. Gig bags, straps, storage racks, and etc. for use with a guitar work well with it and it's inexpensive. I enjoyed playing it, but there was an indefinable something missing from its sound. I decided that I might like to take bass lessons and wanted to learn on a regular size bass, so I spent a couple of weeks researching them before deciding on this one. I've only been playing the Yamaha a few days, but I really like its sounds. I'm 70 years old, and like old music. I don't play slap bass, rap, hip hop, reggae, or etc., so I can't comment on how useful it is for those styles. For 1950s-1970s-style country and pop, its everything I could wish for. Many basses power on an active circuit when you plug in the instrument cable. I'm in the habit of leaving the cable plugged into an instrument when putting it back into the rack, so I didn't want a bass which would drain a battery if I did that. This bass has passive pickups (like the Fender P and J basses) and doesn't even have a compartment for a battery. All in all, I'm pretty happy with it.

Very premium quality,best for the price, looks very premium and durable

Es una bajo muy bien construido de buena calidad, cómodo para tocar , activo y pasivo que nunca falla

インドネシア製のベースで少し不安な所はありましたが、非常に丁寧な作りをしていると思います。 プリアンプ内蔵でアクティブ、パッシブの切り替えが出来て音も良い。 そして何より軽い！3kg後半で取り扱いがし易い。 出荷時からの弦高の調整は高めでしたので、さすがに調整をする必要があると思います。 このベースが6万前後で購入できるとは恐るべしYAMAHA 初心者さんに初めの１本としておすすめだと思います。

Qualità prezzo eccezionale!!!!!
