Yamaha TRBX304 4-String Electric Bass Guitar Demo

[@SonicXRage]

Funny: I have two Yamaha pianos and I might even have a TRBX304 in the future. Yamaha is a great brand!

[@MrAriel4444]

Yamaha in my opinion is better than gibson, fender, and Ibanez, and they have better prices too.

[@cullennowell]

@@MrAriel4444 Great Motorcycles too.

[@mbernardo123]

You are a great bass player, sir. I'm a casual player with a similar Yamaha active bass of 10 years but could never make it sound anywhere near this. It inspires me to want want to learn bass properly.

[@MrTennisgolf]

Best review of this bass. I would love to see you review the 305.

[@alexskibicki2262]

Nice review, jake. I own a yamaha trbx305(which is the 5-string version) and it is a great sounding bass. very useful for any genre. including metal. \m/

[@Speedy-ms6ck]

I needed a new Bass , so went looking for a Yamaha Bass ( cause I heard they were some of the better Bass you can buy ) so tried the 504 Yamaha Bass and it blew me away!!!! I couldn't be happier with this Bass, it's perfect ( sound is Awesome 👌 and it looks good). Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Peace out!!

[@TheGeekFactor]

The only thing this is missing a switch to go from passive to active. Could easily mod that in, though.

[@isaacs2539]

Beautiful review straight from the heart and devoid of ego!

[@savanaviolenta]

Because I use a bass preamp pedal this bass will have its mids dialed quite well.Im going for the Mist Green TRBx305

[@zadokmotorfreight2423]

Wow, what a great review!!

[@darrylpowell8247]

Wish they had other colors. A buckeye or poplar burl pattern would rock!

[@sugarshane8622]

Yeah love this bass. Hate the colors. I want a wood grain version. I've played it many times.

[@_afracturedmind_]

Do they have it in short scale? Please tell me they do, it's exactly what I've been looking for. That mist green finish is beautiful, good choice for display

[@jhoanes.freitas]

Excellent review! Thanks!

[@raintiangja8502]

Im gnna get a yamaha bass giitar tomorrow i hope its like this

[@ZikyElric]

Rain DaDrumma which one did you get?

[@prabodak]

Awesome bass and wonderful playing. May I please know whether you do online bass classes.

[@peterthomas1187]

Good review, thanks! I love Yamaha basses, currently rocking with a BB434! In the past I've had a BB424 (incredible value for an entry level instrument) and a BB1024 which was just awesome!

[@philboath8135]

Just picked one up and think it's great. Really comfortable and playable. Running through fender rumbler 40 in flat mode it's like a warm blanket on a cold day

[@rogersgonc]

Nice review dude

[@souhardyaganguly5708]

In an unlikely event that your bandmates grants you a bass solo XD ( 6:06) Great video though!

[@PIlotrcm]

The only draw back I can think is when you slap, because of the pickup poles, the string can strike the pole creating an unpleasant loud "click" on the neck pickup. I notice some very high end active bass pickups don't have the poles on the pickups, I guess in order to avoid the "clack". Solutions? I guess a heavier gauge string?

[@mutantbaby1672]

Dude, 1, Lower the neck pickup 2, Have you never seen a Stingray/Bongo with a HH config?

[@yqwgjsg]

If you slap the pickup poles, your pickups are likely too high or your action is too low. But, if your action is to low, you probably already have fret buzz

[@CobaltLancer]

Why do you always show the back of the bass for the black finish?

[@naznaz7267]

Is it precision ??

[@sonny5068]

Are the frets sharp?

[@mikewilliams7519]

great review thanks

[@JhonatanHblas]

Yamaha trbx 305 o Ibanez Sr 505 which is better ?

[@elitamodziezowazeswietlana454]

imo Ibanez

[@ashrafulalam3314]

What is the exact weight of this bass...looking for a good sounding light weight bass...?

[@yqwgjsg]

I’d say it feels like the weight of my Tele

[@joedowner2603]

Does flat turn off the active eq or do you need to get the tbrx4 for that

[@alonzotanner1226]

I just got mine and mine won't play without a 9V battery that goes into the back of the guitar. That's weird. When I used to have a Washburn Taurus T-24, and my first two starting basses, the Peavey BXM 4-string and Ibanez BTB400 4-string, they just required a plug-in. I hope this 9V requirement won't be a long term issue.

[@jameslewis2635]

Best practice, just keep a spare battery in your gig bag. As long as you always remember to unplug the bass these batteries will last quite a long time. I have an older 5 string version and that has been very good for me apart from the weight. It's fine sitting down but after standing with it around your neck for 2 hours I find my back and neck hurt quite a lot.

[@peterthomas1187]

A passive bass (such as a Fender Precision) has passive electronics and can just be plugged into the amp/cabinet to play; this particular bass has active electronics (i.e. a preamp built in) which requires an electrical power source - in this case a 9V battery. Nothing weird about it - a lot of basses are built this way...Musicman Stingray, some G&L models, Ibanez, Warwick, Spector...

[@liberatetutemeexinferis5902]

I own one myself.

[@AudiophileTubes]

Sounds like Geddy Lee!

[@anidiotwithacamerastudios5969]

i just got mine today and its so quiet with everything turned up to the max or extremely loud and raspy at next to no volume HELP ME HOW DO I FIX IT

[@Speedy-ms6ck]

Check your power cord and your Amp/not to mention , do you have the power cord on the right output auxiliary hole???

[@JohnDoe-ne4kg]

Change le 9v battery

[@jeremiahjohnson4594]

I hate yalls BBQ sauce and cheese.

[@void_presence]

technically that switch isn't a 'toggle switch', a toggle switch is either on or off, not a selector of more than 2 modes.

[@TroublesomeOwl]

no.. a toggle switch toggles between different states or functions. doesn't have to be off and on

[@alexsmith1207]

Im here because Michael Jackson's Billie Jean song uses this instrument 😁

[@cloroxbleach6596]

a bass?

[@JohnDoe-ne4kg]

Umm. I doubt it. Maybe a Yamaha bass was used but this model of bass wasn't released until the early 2010s I think.

[@yeeyee5054]

Guess how many other songs in existence use the bass.....

[@MrCookingperfec]

el bajo suena feo

[@tonybp]

Suena bien, obviamente eres un amateur/novato... o de plano estás muy pendejo.

[@vicentedorileobarrosbass7037]

You talk too much and you play too little.

[@cia5946]

F u !

[@danielcreech3242]

Why don't you max all your guitar knobs, and control tone and such through the Amp settings, like every other guitar player in the world. I for one, would have liked to hear the instrument, full tilt, and see how good it sounds on the clean channel. Here I am on ebay, trying to get a clue about basses, and channels like this are not helpful. More instrument, less talk please.

[@DroctorKloebner]

thats what you can hear at 2:40. that is the most basic setting of this bass. flat eq, both pickups, full volume. and by the way: what you said is not how bass tones work.

[@Stormfire1777]

@DoctorKloebner: I don’t even now how to play bass and I knew that
