Yamaha TRBX604FM 4-String Electric Bass with Flamed Maple Top
The Yamaha TRBX604FM is the four-string flagship of the TRBX600 series, with a flamed maple top over a sculpted alder/maple laminated body. It combines Yamaha's 3-band active/passive preamp and YGD H5 Alnico V pickups with what Yamaha describes as its slimmest bass neck profile, built on a 38 mm nut.
It is designed for players who want a professional-feeling four-string with a striking finish and tonal flexibility for stage and studio. Whether you play fingerstyle, slap or with a pick, the preamp lets you shape the sound in detail, while passive mode keeps you going if the battery runs low.
Key Features

Flamed Maple Top on the TRBX604FM Bass
A flamed maple top crowns a 3D-sculpted alder/maple laminated body, shaped for comfort and even weight distribution. The construction gives a punchy voice, and natural flame figure means every top looks slightly different.

Active/Passive Preamp with Level-Matched Output
Master volume, pickup balancer and a 3-band EQ for bass, middle and treble give detailed control in active mode. Switch to passive and the volume stays matched, while the treble knob becomes a master tone control.
YGD H5 Alnico V Pickups
Quad-polepiece H5 humbuckers with Alnico V magnets deliver a clean, open sound. They are powerful enough to drive the active preamp and sensitive enough to bring out nuance in passive mode.
Battery Alert LED and Gold-Plated Contacts
An LED on the back panel shows when the battery is getting low, so power loss does not catch you mid-song. Key signal-chain contacts use gold-plated parts for better conductivity and reliability.

Slim Neck with 38 mm Nut
The five-piece maple/mahogany neck is laminated for stability, with a 38 mm nut, 10 in (250 mm) radius rosewood fingerboard and 24 medium frets. A straight string pull at the headstock helps tuning stay put.

Precision-Fitted Bolt-On Neck Joint
Yamaha refined the bolt-on joint through extensive play-testing to balance strength, vibration transfer and access to the upper frets. It also keeps the neck easy to adjust and service.

High-Mass Die-Cast Bridge
The high-mass bridge transfers string vibration into the body for a full, rich tone and offers easy adjustment of action and intonation. String spacing is 19 mm, with a metal plate-mounted output jack for durability.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the TRBX604FM differ from the TRBX504?
They share the YGD H5 pickups, 3-band active/passive preamp, battery alert LED, gold-plated contacts and five-piece neck. The TRBX604FM has a flamed maple top on an alder/maple laminated body, while the TRBX504 uses a solid mahogany body.
Does the TRBX604FM have Performance EQ?
No. Performance EQ is a TRBX300 series feature found on the TRBX304 and TRBX305. The TRBX604FM uses a 3-band EQ with an active/passive switch instead.
TRBX604FM or TRBX605FM: which should I pick?
The TRBX605FM is the five-string version, with a 43 mm nut, 18 mm string spacing and a flatter 600 mm radius. If you do not need notes below low E, the TRBX604FM's 38 mm nut and 19 mm spacing offer a slimmer, more familiar feel.
Will it work if the battery dies?
Yes. Switch to passive mode and the bass keeps playing at a matched output level. The battery alert LED gives advance warning, and Yamaha specifies a 9 V (DC9V S-006P / 6LR61 / 6F22 or equivalent) battery for active mode.
What strings are fitted?
Yamaha fits the TRBX604FM with D'Addario EXL170 strings, gauged 0.045 to 0.100.
