About This Listing

John Myung Signature Yamaha RBX 6 JM2 6-string bass

Hard case included

Nice Yamaha 6-string bass with a MusicMan StingRay vibe.

The 34" scale makes this easier to play than 35"-scale basses, and the fat humbucker gives it nice lows while retaining excellent clarity.

Has a small handful of beauty-marks from the previous owner, which I've tried to show in the pics.

Just had my tech set her up with new strings. Plays great & sounds great!

From Wikipedia:

RBX6JM2

The Yamaha RBX6JM2 is the second signature model of John Myung, the bassist of Dream Theater.

In 2002 John Myung and Yamaha unveiled the RBX-JM2, an updated version of his signature bass that echoed the redesign of their entire RBX-series of basses.

Changes included a modified body shape with more "modern" lines and carvings, finishes in either "Inca Silver" or "Plum Purple" in flat as opposed to glossy paint.

Slightly tighter string-spacing, a maple neck/rosewood fretboard with Yin-Yang inlay at the 12th fret, 34-inch scale as opposed to the 35-inch scale that the RBX6JM had, and most importantly a single Music Man-style Seymour Duncan SMB6A humbucking pickup, by all accounts an influence from his usage of a Music Man Sting Ray to record a good portion of Dream Theater's Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence.
