• Incredibly popular pickup combination
• 2-band active electronics
• A reliable instrument for a great value

The split-p and j-style single-coil pickup combination is one of the most popular pairings for bassists in many different styles. The neck pickup delivers the midrange-focused growl and low end that is required in a bassist's arsenal. The single-coil in the bridge position adds attack and definition to your tone. And by soloing that pickup you'll enjoy Jaco-like higher-end punch. Use the blend knob and you'll be able to conjure any balance of the two pickups that you desire.

A step up from the TRBX174, the 204 series adds a powerful 2-band active preamp for optimizing your sound. The bass knob will boost or cut your low end for round, jazzy thump. The treble control will determine the clarity and cut you hear. And a turn of the pickup blend knob further opens up the tonal options of the TRBX240. Whether you need cut for slap bass or fat thump, the active package in the TRBX240 gets you there.

Yamaha instruments are well known for their high construction quality and how much instrument you get for your money. The TRBX240 4-string offers features like an active preamp, classic tonewood construction, and a design that looks great at any gig. These features add up to an electric bass that is perfect for learning to play or as a workhorse gigging instrument. And at an affordable price point, the Yamaha TRBX240 is one of the better values in the world of bass.
