What we say:
At A Glance:
The Yamaha TRBX174 EW in Root Beer represents one of the best basses around for beginners. It's a full-sized bass with quality components that will keep up with the pace as you get better, meaning there's no need to upgrade as you become more advanced. It's also a great option for experienced players in need of an inexpensive guitar for gigging and practice.
Features We Love:
Mahogany Body
Mahogany is a popular hardwood that's loved for its weighty feel, rich low end and smooth high-end character. Here it is partnered with an Exotic Wood laminate to give it a look usually only seen on high-end models.
Pickups
This bass sports a split single-coil pickup in the classic middle position, with its unmistakable mid-range and tone, while the addition of a J Bass style pickup in the bridge position gives you access to a host of further sounds, from shimmering cleans to satisfying growl and slap tones.
34" Scale Length
The standard 34" scale length promotes string tension without the guitar feeling uncomfortable, great for all styles of music and can even handle some down-tuning if required.
Highlights:
- Great for learning on
- Suitable for playing most styles of music
- Wide range of tone options
- Gorgeous looks
