Description Yamaha TRBX605FM Electric Bass Guitar System Yamaha TRBX605FM features controls for master volume, balance, and 3-band EQ with an active/passive switch for maximum flexibility. Pickups YGD-designed H5 pickups are defined by a clean, open tone that’s perfectly matched with the flexibility of the active/passive preamp design. Their quad-polepiece design and alnico magnets give them the power to drive the active circuit and the sensitivity and subtlety to capture every nuance in passive mode. Electronics (Active/Passive selector, Battery Alert) TRBX605FM features an audiophile-grade active/passive circuit for fine tonal control and extreme flexibility. The advanced design offers a level-matched output whether in passive or active mode and tone-switching circuitry that seamlessly moves from treble control to master passive tone. High-quality gold plated parts are used for key signal chain contacts, providing increased conductivity and reliability and a battery alert LED installed on the back panel gives an instant indication of low power to eliminate sudden power loss during performance. Body TRBX features a sculpted alder/maple laminated body, with a mass-optimized 3D design for the optimum balance between tone and comfort coupled with perfect weight distribution. Neck TRBX’s neck design combines a fast, ultra-comfortable profile with 5-pc 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 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 The straight string pulls from the nut to the machine head eliminates lateral tension, providing superior tuning stability and reducing overtones. Headstock 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 a 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.
