Yamaha TRBX605FM: playing comfort, humbuckers and active/passive switch

The rosewood fretboard has a modern, flat radius that makes it easy to play fast runs and melodies. This bass doesn't just look and feel good, however, it has a great sound too. That's not just down to the wood types used or its construction, but also its hardware. There are two Double Coil YGD H5 Alnico V humbuckers that work in perfect harmony with the on-board controls. There's an active/passive switch that lets you use the 3-band EQ to accurately shape your sound in active mode. There's a master tone control for when you're in passive mode and other controls include a master volume and a balance knob. Needless to say, this gives you plenty of options to find the perfect tone.
