Four Bands

130 kΩ resistor colour code

Four bands: Brown · Orange · Yellow · Gold. The first two give the digits, the third multiplies, the fourth states how far off the real part may be.

123.5 kΩ – 136.5 kΩ

A gold band allows this much drift.

The same value on a five-band part

Precision resistors carry three significant digits instead of two, so the same 130 kΩ looks different.
