That is a good bass. You can hear the resonance emanate from the wood, and the tone is not too bright or dark. Very nice.
Thank you very much Ken! I could tell it was a good one when I first picked it up at the store! Once I knew the price was right, I had to bring it home! Happy 2021 and thanks for watching! MORE! 3000 Tutorials! Guitar, Bass, Piano, Ukulele & Drums! ua-cam.com/users/EricBlackmonGuitarvideos

Mr Blackmon, you have good fortune coming across good buys for guitars.
Hi Cassis! They are getting few and far between in the last couple of years. The pawn stores are getting more and more ridiculous with their prices. I got lucky this time!

I saw Yamaha trbx series on my sweetwater catalogue. I loved them. So I saw this on a website and decided to see some review. Yours was the first to appear. Greetings Eric. I will save for this.
Superb playing and demo! Thanks for the warning about the frets though. Still, you would have to do a bit of that on any Squier bass you’d buy too.
So true! But this is way better than the 2 Squier basses that I own!
Thanks for watching X!

Hi there great video. Is this a precision or a jazz bass? I’m after a precision bass and this one looks perfect for me, I’m mainly going to be using it for rock and metal

what strings should i get? i teach myself and i don’t really know the terms very well, but something is off about the sound no matter who’s playing and i’d like to know how to improve it
I use a D'Addario 45-100 regular light set. They are deep enough for good lows and bright enough for high notes to sing, stay in tune well and are easy to press down while playing.

Is the bass light? Because I have back problems and Iv been looking for a lighter bass so I can play more.
It is very light compared to some of my other basses. Of course I sit most of the time when I play, so weight is not a real problem. Thanks for watching Craig! ALL Bass Tutorials On This Channel ua-cam.com/play/PLHdKL0zeGNk5_IhMgoT1U3GI2GfaNnsq3.html
