haruki Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) Yamaha TRB6 II in blue with rosewood board and gold bridge/machine heads. These were made in Japan and have a great clear tone and good build quality. Its got an active 3 band eq. From the serial number I think this was made it 1999. I bought it a couple of years back - I think its one of those basses that has been around basschat. Its in good condition - the only ding I can see is around the jack socket (see pic) and a bit on the back of the neck. Its strung E to E at the moment (Overwater Nickel Roundwound) -for complicated reasons ---but makes it great for chords. I've got the low B string from the original set so easy to convert back to B-C. No case I'm afraid just a Ritter Gig Bag. Would prefer pick up in either north essex or london. If needed I'm willing to drive a bit to meet up (+bit of petrol money). [s]£500[/s] £450 .... Interested in trades... good fretless, 4 string passive jazz, or compact amps/cabs, or EUB or whatever....+/- cash [attachment=77623:006.JPG][attachment=77622:007.JPG][attachment=77621:004.JPG][attachment=77624:009. JPG] Plus two more pictures that show the bass is way too smart for my patio.... [attachment=78784:005.JPG][attachment=78785:008.JPG] Edited 15_5 Edited May 25, 2011 by haruki

lucatus Posted April 16, 2011 Posted April 16, 2011 I have a few things I would trade... I was trying to sell a few basses, but I changed my mind, got a bit tired of bargaining and at the same time I didn¨t want to let them go, but I had one of these TRB years ago and always regretted selling it,,, Check my profile, you¨ll see what I was selling. From what I have, I¨m positively sure of disposing of my original Hofner Reissue 63, maybe one of the Fenders as well. If we can not make a deal, best of luck with the sale! Cheers.
