Vincent Barras

The Yamaha RBX270J is a solid and reliable modern bass that blends an alder body, fast 24 fret neck and P-J pickup layout for a wide range of usable tones. Its slim maple neck and rosewood fingerboard make it comfortable to play, while the split coil and single coil combination gives punch, clarity and versatility across styles. With dependable Yamaha hardware and a balanced feel, it is a great all round bass for rehearsals, recording and performance.
