    Overall a well thought out low, not too bad over. I love its shape, and the pretty emerald green of my model. I have for now, failed to use but I'm working :-) It has good resistance to everyday life.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is comfortable to play, access to the latest cargo is really easy by the shape of the bass really adapted. It is not too heavy, even for a weakling!
    The settings may not be very obvious, by the ability of the RBX760A has to transcend the lower. So when we love the big sound, it was quick to exaggerate the EQ to the bass. However, when we refreine a little it can do really!

    SOUNDS

    This bass is very versatile in terms of music styles as the settings allow a wide pannel of sound possibilities. However, I sometimes find the treble a bit small compared to the bass. This effect is partly offset by the ability to balance the two with respect to the other. I play mostly metal, I can afford a lot of fantasy (like low-bottom push the pieces of a dub that sounds, make the sound more slamming by switching on the acute passages slap ...) c ' is quite nice. The sound is rather round, especially when compared to the low price range. Most bass players with whom I play her surprised by its sound.

    As the balance is sometimes hard to find, I put a 7 GOOD!

    OVERALL OPINION

    Purchased from OCCAZ 'for about 200 euros 2 years ago, it's a low that I do not want to separate myself from him because I found a particular sound, round and fairly versatile. Price / quality ratio is really good at all. This is not the sound of a round Fender Jazz Bass (although that is not the same use!), But it is also far from his beuark of Cort entry. In addition it is much easier to play than the entry-level models of Cort. So the choice I would do without hesitation!

    This is one of the good low trs active, versatile and efficient.

    Technical Specifications:
    - Mcaniques oil bath;
    - 24 round boxes, screwed rosewood fingerboard;
    - 2 double-coil pickups;
    - CONTRL: low microphone gain, treble, balance the two microphones;
    - Electronic active.

    UTILIZATION

    It's been a good ten years that I play the bass. I play rock, funk, jazz. So in gnral, I am looking plutt a sound that has the attack. This bass has a real bass sound active configuration "standard" balance 0, 0 amplification. This allows for a default trs his groovy, well suited to slap.

    on the other hand, ds that we want to play records DIFFERENT, it helps to have a trs round and smooth thanks to the micro bass, treble and clear thanks to the micro agu. Being able to quantify the gain of each amplifier and microphones to be able to balance between the two really can adapt his sound.
    The handle has a fairly flat profile, allowing a quick game. The body is well thought out as it allows an easy ACCS notes "the Cotavance" (beyond the 12 am one). You can really play arpges between the 12th and 24me box, which is not true of all low CHRE worth much more.
    I looked for something better, and less to 2000, I have not yet found. The only default that I can make it are: the average quality of the painting of fittings, which after 5 years was stitched and the lack of the CONTRL linares volume.
    Otherwise, I love it.
    May be that Yamaha to correct the defects with the new MODEL.
    It is sold an acceptable price trs. 3500 Franks bought 5 years ago.
    I suggest seeking a bass player's bass deuxime: APRS instrument of study low-end, he will find the instrument a versatile and good quality.

Otherwise the coating of the handle does not catch your hands so that happiness at this level.

    In terms of ergonomics, this bass is for me light and well designed, in fact it does not sting the head, and compared to my other bass, a Yamaha BB, weight is a relief, when I notte spend my after noon to play.

    Both microphones offer a broad enough range of the preamps can more or less his own inks, making it versatile in virtually every type of rock. The sound is usually a little metal, which gives, in my view, a certain charm.

    Contrairemennt that I read on the net, I can not find it at all impersonal, this Rbx a little trick that makes it unique ^ ^

    The preamp not necessarily require heavy knowledge, but requires all the same, a slight time to "study" for those seeking a particular sound.

    One little thing bothered me, however when the first week, when you play with a pick near the bridge, it is possible to touch the volume knob, which is very sensitive and runs at full speed ^ ^ After this little consideration taken , RAS.

    SOUNDS

    This low for its versatility is perfect for what I want, but it is also true (as long as you play the mediator) that its a little metal quickly become annoying for any newcomer not knowing properly adjust the preamp " machine ". Finger sound is round and well defined.

    Otherwise, I can just about a deal with, whether the New / Cold Wave, alternative rock ... Even the raggae lol. Seriously, no worries, it's really a nice choice.

    I play on an H & K Basskick200 Magicstomp and Eb, and I find that pushing a little low, by reducing a chouillat the medium and by the treble on a neutral position, all under a powdery Stereo Chorus. .. yum yum

    OVERALL OPINION

    I bought used for 300 euro a fly there just under two months.
    Pretty fun to play and does not weigh much, I am fully satisfied. An incredible value for money.
    It combines perfectly with my passive bass, which sounds when even deeper, but less singing in the treble. So in the choice, I can not say this choice again with closed eyes to the extent that I am already fully satisfied, but quit to change, quit to pick a more upscale ... Is there a more upscale RBX?

    Objectively this good deserves a nice little low 8 / 10, thanks to its many qualities and versatility in the game if I Devaya After the subjective score, I will probably be more ^

    See below. Mcaniques so well made. :-)

    UTILIZATION

    The neck is super enjoyable, fine, it glides well. Access in acute is not bad at all. Having a Jazz bass, I find it easier to achieve the treble on it than on plutt Jazzbass. The active rglages enable a wide range trs sound, super efficient. Low lgre and sounding really LOUD! So why not??

    SOUNDS

    I think that little prs all styles of music may find their account by the characters of this versatile bass. Default may be small, low trs are xagres against acute when pushing the legalization active. Great for blues, great for funk, slap .. a lot of hard-rockers like him also .. uh .. that does not like it at all anyway?

    Super all that time it does not rate much. I had to sell it, but I did not. If I find her to not CHRE which is often the case, I Rasht! Excellent price quality ratio. This bass sounds like a low near the high end.

    The Yamaha RBX760A is an electric bass guitar with active pick ups. I'm not an owner of this bass, but I used to play in a band with someone who has it and we still hang out so every now and then and I get to mess around with it. I don't have too much information in terms of specs on this bass, but it wasn't made in the USA and has two pick ups to work with and a volume and tone knob for each.

    UTILIZATION

    The feel of the Yamaha RBX760A is the best part about it, as the action is extremely fast! I really like playing this bass as it's easy to navigate up and down the fretboard quickly and smoothly. It's definitely surprising to find in a bass like this, but the neck's action see…

It's definitely surprising to find in a bass like this, but the neck's action seems to be as quick as some basses double or triple it's price.

    SOUNDS

    The sound of the Yamaha RBX760A is pretty good, but it's not really anything to write home about. The sound of the active pick ups is definitely pretty hot and sensitive, but it's kind of cool for what it is - definitely a modern sound. It's got more of a heavy attack sort of sound than anything else. It's not my favorite sounding bass, but for the price it's very good. If you were to switch out the pick ups here you'd have yourself a great sounding instrument most likely.

    OVERALL OPINION

    The Yamaha RBX760A is actually a pretty awesome bass guitar for the price. It's definitely as good as some instruments that are more expensive, and if you change out the pick ups here you'd probably have yourself a very nice bass. The action is outstanding as it's super easy to play. I don't believe that they're making the RBX760A any more, but if you can find one used for not too much I'd say grab it up for a beginning or intermediate bass player as this is a great instrument for the money.
