A TRB Designed for Precision and Dynamics
The TRB1004JNT embodies Yamaha's "TRB" spirit: a bass focused on playing comfort, definition, and versatility, with craftsmanship tailored to handle clear attacks and articulated bass lines. This 4-string version emphasizes a lighter, more responsive instrument while maintaining a sense of tension and control thanks to its longer scale length.
For Which Bassist and Styles
This bass guitar is especially aimed at intermediate to advanced bassists seeking exemplary low-end sustain and high playing precision. It excels in rock, metal, funk, pop, gospel, and fusion: anywhere definition, attack, and consistency are essential, particularly on chords, slap techniques, and fast lines.
Sound
The combination of alder and maple provides a very effective balance: alder supports a full and musical low-midrange, while the maple top enhances attack and clarity, ideal for cutting through a mix. The two Yamaha Alnico humbuckers deliver a powerful and even signal, with solid lows and clear mids. The active 3-band preamp, combined with volume and balance controls, allows quick shaping of the character (either more modern and punchy or rounder and deeper) while maintaining good definition, especially appreciated with the 35" scale.
