Well…450 has now gone. And the white 350f I didn’t actually think I’d win on eBay arrived…

[TheGreek]

I like the simplicity of the white fretless.

GAS got the better of me...I know I shouldn't have...no excuses...

 

I'm a bad person.

Lovely Basses Mick!

I look forward to the patter of tiny strings 😂

[TheGreek]

Removed the sticker, lowered the action, fine tuned the intonation and fitted tapewounds.

Like a new bass - but TBF is it for me.

[TheGreek]

Don't see these for sale very often - well priced?

Nah @TheGreekseems very pricey for something which looks like it needs a full restoration 👍🏼

In case you haven't ventured into the BB mega thread. 

 

My BB424X that I've just reversed the P pickup on. 

I'm really, really enjoying this bass at the moment.

Loving this set up now. Yamaha TRB6P with Bartolini pick ups and pre amp. Hip shot hardware.

I'm just going to join in showing my beloved TRB 5P. It blends extremely well live and in studio!

 

[zbigniew]

@lucatus TRB 5P has always been in my mind as a bass I want to own one day.  Yours looks great!
