The Yamaha TRBX505 is a powerhouse of performance, versatility, and sleek style designed for serious bassists who demand tonal flexibility and playability. With a sculpted mahogany body, 5-piece maple/mahogany neck, and a slick satin polyurethane finish, this bass not only looks the part but also plays like a dream. Its ergonomic design, deep cutaways, and straight-pull headstock give it a distinctly modern edge, both visually and functionally, offering exceptional balance and upper fret access.

At the heart of the TRBX505 are a pair of custom H5 Alnico V humbuckers, delivering full-spectrum tone with excellent articulation, punch, and zero unwanted hum. Whether you’re laying down heavy grooves or exploring melodic solo lines, these pickups respond with clarity and power. A 3-band active EQ and an active/passive mini-switch provide instant tone-shaping flexibility, making it a perfect fit for a variety of genres — from funk and jazz to metal and prog.

Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this bass is tailor-made for stage and studio alike. Its precision neck joint enhances sustain and articulation, while the smooth 24-fret rosewood fingerboard supports fast, expressive playing. Whether you're a session veteran or a gigging workhorse, the Yamaha TRBX505 gives you a confident, professional feel with tone that adapts effortlessly to any musical situation.
