Yamaha RBX270J Natural 2016 Electric Bass

Here for sale we have a Yamaha  RBX270J electric bass in Natural finish. Built in Indonesia in 2016, this bass features an Alder body, Satin finished Maple neck and a 24 Medium Jumbo fret Rosewood fingerboard. Other appointments include an individual four saddle bridge and sealed tuning machines. The pickups featured are a Yamaha Split coil in the middle and a Yamaha Singlecoil in the bridge, these are wired to a master volume, pickup balance and master tone.

The Maple neck sits comfortably in the hand, with a profile resembling a ‘D’ filling the hand without being cumbersome, allowing for comfortable reach in all registers and promoting ergonomic thumb positioning. The 10” radius Rosewood fingerboard provides a comfortable playing surface, which allows for different techniques such as slap bass or chordal playing. The Satin finish is fantastic for smooth, quick transitions up and down the neck whilst the double cutaway body design allows the player to have unobstructed access to the entire 24 fret register.

The pair of Yamaha pickups produce a modern voicing, which offers a massive reduction in noise, the thick low end is complemented by driving mids and sparkly top end that helps put your playing front and centre in the mix. The control layout provides the player with a wide variety of tones for the player to explore and dial in the perfect tone.
