I looked everywhere, couldn't find any information on it! Thanks for the info though, that has cleared up my confusion

Nice! New strings always makes the difference! By the way, how much would you be looking for the G5A if you were to sell it to me?

I've been looking at the prices of yamaha trb1006's and I was just wondering is there a difference between the TRB1006 and the TRB1006J or is it the same thing? They look exactly the same There seems to be a general price difference. TRB1006J sells for about £870 and the TRB1006 sells for about £680. Thanks

Thanks! I will probably buy one off modelingmakingsupplies.co.uk

damnit! And theres no decent music stores near me! Does anyone want to sell me one please?

My bad, sorry for the three pics! First time doing that haha

Here's the pic:

Just tried the one of my jazz, doesn't fit! Do you know where I can buy a replacement quickly? I don't think I can wait 2 weeks for yamaha to send me one, as i'm trading the bass in about 7 days!

Hey On the bridge of my yamaha rbx775, i'm missing one of the screw things that you move to raise and lower the action on the B string. I don't know what the actual term for it is, so I hope my description is understandable Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for this? Need one asap as I am going to be selling it bass soon. Thanks Matt

Getting a refund haha! There was actually a rip in the left speaker!

[quote name='geoffbyrne' post='1325296' date='Aug 3 2011, 10:06 AM']IMHO the BB415 has a *far* nicer neck then the G5A, which feels like an ironing board in comparison - mind you, I have smallish hands. I know the RB605 has a 'clubby' neck, as I used to own this very bass & it's coming back to me! I feel I didn't really give this bass a chance when I had it & now I have the chance to get it back I'll give it a fair go, however as I said above, one will have to go as I'm limiting myself to 2 basses (main & backup). By the way, does the RBX775 have the 10-pole Yamaha Humbucking pickups? I'd love to put a pair of thos on the G5A. I used to have an RBX375 fitted with those & I loved the tone. G.[/quote] If i'm honest, i don't actually know.. but check out the specs on the yamaha website .

No problem! Well, I really like yamaha 5 strings.. they do the best 5 stringers in their price range in my opinion. But, i've never liked the look of the yamaha rbx775 (the one I have) and i've never liked the shape of the body on the rbx765. But I like everything about the BBG5A! Matt

Tempting! I'l wait to see if geoff is going to sell me his, if not then I will buy a bb605! Thanks for the help everyone

How much was your BB605 New? and is £130 a good secondhand price?

What colour is your G5A geoff?

Just did a bit of research and apparently it's called a BB605.. not a N89. Confused

Ah okay thanks, do you know how much these sold for new? Because if they are of the same quality as the BBG5A's i'm probably going to buy it! I've been looking for a BBG5A in this colour [url="http://www.langamers.it/mandricus/musica/immagini/YahamaBBg5A.jpg"]http://www.langamers.it/mandricus/musica/i...YahamaBBg5A.jpg[/url] for months... but none seem to come up secondhand!

I found this bass on gumtree that looks alot like a BBG5A (which I am trying to find one) but with different pickups. [url="http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/yamaha-n89-bass-5-string/82951301"]http://www.gumtree.com/p/for-sale/yamaha-n...string/82951301[/url] It's called a yamaha N89 and I have never heard of these before and there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on the internet either. Does anyone here have one, or know anything about them e.g. price and are they good? Thanks Matt

Hey What is meant by 'string tension".. I think i'm on the right lines but just checking! Cheers

Hey I've been reading about and apparently you can get three sets of hartke strings for £11! I've looked everywhere and I can't seem to find anywhere that sells them! Anyone know anywhere? Cheers

Thanks!

Ahh, considering it. Does anyone know how much them peavey cabinets sold for new? They are discontinued now

Hey I'm looking for a cheap 2x10 that will get the job done for emergency gigs where I can't take my cab, for jazz band and for band practice where theres no gear. I don't really know where to start looking but I know that it has to be cheapish. Or if there is any 1x15 or 1x12 cabs that will also do the job, please recommend them! Also, it has to be able to handle a 1600watt SVT4 haha Cheers
