TRBX series Common Features Body TRBX features a sculpted solid mahogany body, with a massoptimized 3D design for the optimum balance between tone and comfort coupled with perfect weight distribution. PICKUPS & BRIDGE & OUTPUT JACK Bridge A high-mass die-cast bridge efficiently transfers string vibrations to the body for full, rich tone combined with excellent adjustability and road-tested durability. 18mm string spacing on the 5-string model offers outstanding playability for technical slap or finger styles. Battery Alert LED (TRBX500) Yamaha’s metal plate-mounted standard jack socket offers superior durability and easy maintenance. Pickups (TRBX500) Yamaha’s H5 dual-coil pickups are defined by a clean, open tone that’s perfectly matched with the flexibility of the active/ passive preamp design. Their quadpolepiece design and alnico magnets give them the power to drive the active circuit and the sensitivity and subtlety to capture every nuance in passive mode.
