Yamaha RBX270J BL electric bass guitar black

Descrizione

As a beginning bassist it's important that you have an instrument that both sounds and feels good. Not only does it make learning easier and more enjoyable, but it keeps you motivated to keep going. This black RBX270J by Yamaha has everything you could want in your first bass guitar. It's strongly built with quality parts and materials, without forcing you to empty your piggy bank! The RBX270J has a few upgrades that set it apart from its little brother, the RBX170. Included among these are the solid alder body and a set of high-quality die-cast oil bath tuners.

Versatility of the Yamaha RBX270J

The RBX270J is equipped with two powerful pickups that can be used to create a wide range of bass guitar sounds. The front pickup (neck position) is a P-type split single-coil. This produces a warm, punchy tone that's great for diverse playing and music styles. The pickup by the bridge is a J-type single-coil and has an incredibly bright, clear sound. With the balance knob (middle potentiometer) you can choose the sound from the neck or bridge pickup and every combination in between. Furthermore, you have a lot of choices with the master volume and master tone, for example you use these to filter out high frequencies for a woolly jazz sound.

Cut from the right stuff

The body of the RBX270 has a comfortable, unique form with two cutaways that give you free access to the 24th fret. Additionally, the long upper horn ensures that the bass has excellent balance whether you're sitting or standing. The body is made of solid alder, which is a lightweight wood with tight, full lows, rich mids and bright trebles. The neck also offers excellent playing comfort thanks to the comfortable thin profile. Finally, the bass is equipped with four closed die-cast oil bath tuners. These are self-lubricating so they keep dust and dirt away and are easy and supple to adjust, with the additional benefit of having outstanding tuning longevity.
