Good Points
Excellent beginner's bass
Sounds like a bass twice the price
Lightweight, yet hardy

Bad Points
Tone slightly on the "twangy" side
Gloss finish easily gets dirty

General Comments
The Yamaha RBX-170 gives absolute perfection for a beginner's bass, and even for the intermediate. It sounds like it could cost heaps more, and is nice to play and pleasing to the ear.
Smooth action

Real rosewood fretboard

Wide tonal range, with a P and J pickup.

If you are looking for a great value yet smooth sounding bass then look no further!
