5-String Purchase - Perhaps Sandberg?

After about 30 to 45 minutes of switching back and forth, I had to admit that the Yamaha was a better choice for me. I ended up buying the TRBX604, because I wanted the dark red burst color (the 500 series have pretty conservative colors, while the 600s look a lot nicer). I still love Sandberg's instruments, but I don't see myself buying one any time soon. When I was shopping for a 5-string, I compared a bunch of them as well - Ibanez, Yamaha, Sandberg, Lakland, Fender ...

Nice bass that could use better QC.

This bass plays and sounds quite nice, after a string change and setup. Intonation was great out of the box, but required truss adjustment, and the action was really high too. Over-all, for a beginner/intermediate player like myself, it was a good purchase, and I like it enough that it helps to insp...

The TRBX604 is now my main gigging bass. I'd love to own a Sandberg someday, but last summer, the Yamaha felt and sounded better in my hands.

This was a used bass and its really nice

As the title says I got this from the used options. And for the life of me I cant figure out what was wrong with it. I'm more then happy with the bass. I'm not going to say this is a great bass for beginners as the neck is a bit bigger then some other basses at the same price point. But if your look...

Are Yamaha basses any good?

My TRBX604 outshines my Fender Precision and my Sandberg Electra in terms of playability and flexibility. Highly recommended!

Keep the bass just change the electronis and bridge youll hear the difference

The workmanship on this bass guitar is very good i believe it as good as the 2000 dollar basses out their (really!) . I really wasnt to impressed With the pickups . It lacked focus but what do you expect for 650 dollars. Im keeping the bass because its built solid but I'm upgrading the pick ups and ...

I enjoy the versatility of my Yamaha TRBX604. Active/Passive, two humbuckers, great neck and balance...

I love my MIM Precision as well, but the Yamaha gives me a lot more options to dial in the tone I'm looking for...

Nice looking and playing bass with some minor gripes

Received the bass and the neck was way out of adjustment. The location of the truss rod is accessible, but a bit of a pain. The tuners are not that great and based on how they are set on the headstock, I will have to do a little research on what I can replace them with (if it is worth the effort or ...

Anyone else play Yamaha basses? TRBX504

its my first bass and i tired some basses in store (trbx604 and sterling ray4 hh which is all they had in stock) and the shape/neck of the yamaha felt a lot better to me. if i get really into bass i think ill pick up some kind of stingray because i really love the sound it has.

Everything about the bass was perfectly fine, but i did have to do some setup work since the bass was a pain to play fresh out of the box. Overall, no really big issues, very good beginner bass and I highly recommend it. After the setup work, i could get so much out of it tone wise, slap sounded ama...
