Frequently Asked Questions
In passive mode, the bass offers a more traditional, slightly scooped tone. Activating the circuit adds a noticeable boost and expands tonal options with the EQ controls.
Like any gloss finish, it's susceptible to scratches, so a good quality polish and careful handling are recommended to keep it looking its best.
The maple/mahogany construction yields a comfortable 'C' shape that’s generally considered a bit warmer and slightly thicker than some of Yamaha’s more modern, slim profiles.
