The Yamaha TRBX174 is a 4-string electric bass with a mahogany body, bolt-on maple neck and sonokeling fingerboard. Its P/J pickup layout pairs a split-coil with a bridge single-coil, giving a punchy, clear tone that covers rock, pop and funk. The deep cutaway and shaped upper bout make upper-fret access and balance comfortable. It is a strong first bass or backup for players who want versatile tone without paying for active electronics.

The Yamaha TRBX174 is a 4-string, right-handed electric bass with a mahogany body in a gloss polyurethane finish. The TRBX body has a deep cutaway for reaching the high frets. The shaped upper bout helps the bass balance on a strap.
It has a bolt-on maple neck with a Sonokeling fingerboard, 24 frets and white dot inlays. The hardware includes a vintage-style bridge and covered tuners.
The pickups are in a P/J layout: a split-coil pickup for a thick, deep tone and a single-coil pickup at the bridge for a clear mid and high growl. Controls are two volume knobs and one master tone. The bass carries a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
