The RBX170 represents a price breakthrough for the RBX
range, yet the quality is everything you’d expect from a Yamaha bass.
The solid Agathis body - in an attractive choice of colours - shares the
range’s sleek, wide-cutaway contours, allowing the player easy access
right to the top of the 24-fret, full-scale neck which carries a genuine
rosewood fingerboard.
Powering is by two punchy, clear-voiced single-coil
pickups, with the volume and tone controls augmented by a pickup balance
control for added sonic versatility and expression.
