History:
Purchase: I really wanted to play bass for a long time. I found a shop only for Yamaha instruments, so I decided to take a look. I found this bass and I liked its shape so I tried it out. I enjoyed it so much that I bought it after 4 days for 1550 Egyptian Pounds (that's about £160).
What I Like About This Unit: Everything, its design, its sound, and it's very comfortable too. The strings also stay in tune (unlike some guitars).
What I Do NOT Like About The Yamaha RBX-170: Not much to say actually, this bass rocks.
RBX-170 Quality: 24 Frets, rosewood fingerboard, paintjob done perfectly, and everything was perfectly adjusted from the beginnig, I only needed t tune it and it was ready for playing
Summary: Buy it if you can, it's really worth it, and you'll save a lot of money too. Suitable for all kinds of bassists.
