TRBboy Posted December 14, 2011 Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Hi All, Thinking of selling my TRB1005 as I really don't use it. Bought brand new last year for a specific project (which didn't last long), it has only done about 6 rehearsals and 1 gig. It is in immaculate condition, with no dings or scratches to speak of. It is Translucent Dark Red with Black hardware (this colour option is no longer available), and sounds AMAZING! The neck is lovely and easy to play, and it has an active 3-band EQ. As usual, the 35" scale means the B string is fantastic! Sound-wise it is very versatile, but always kind of reminds me of a modern, active, J-type bass; it can have real clarity and bite or a nice full, solid bottom end. [b] Specs[/b]: [b]Body:[/b] Alder with Flamed Maple top [b]Neck:[/b] 3-piece Maple with Rosewood fingerboard and pearloid inlays [b]Scale Length:[/b] 35" (889mm) [b]Pickups:[/b] Alnico V Hum-cancelling (X2) [b]Bridge:[/b] Solid Brass [b]Controls:[/b] 3-band active EQ (vol, blend, bass, mid, treble) Thanks for looking! [b]EDIT:[/b] Forgot to mention, I will include a "vintage" Hiscox ABS case, and courier delivery within mainland UK.

I'll add it above, but just to say that the bass will come with a "vintage" Hiscox ABS case, and will also include courier delivery within mainland UK. Ta
TRBboy Posted December 17, 2011 Author Posted December 17, 2011 Bump for pictures added - apologies for the delay!
Machines Posted December 18, 2011 Posted December 18, 2011 That's a beauty. I few years ago I wanted a TRB1006 in Trans Red and still they look awesome. They are solid instruments and this is a reasonable price, good luck with the sale !

[/quote] Cheers man, it is a great bass but I just don't use it. Hopefully it'll go to someone who'll use it regularly and enjoy it!
TRBboy Posted December 20, 2011 Author Posted December 20, 2011 Up to the top..... Maybe Christmas isn't a good time to sell basses!
geoffbyrne Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 I'd have this, as I already have 2 x BBs, but unfortunately, I can't afford it. Have a bump on me. G.

TRBboy Posted January 5, 2012 Author Posted January 5, 2012 Would trade for a Sandberg Basic 5 or Basic Ken Taylor 5........
MikanHannille Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Really interested on this. But I have to sell my Squier Vintage Modified V first at the end of this month before I can afford this. Hope it's still here by then!!

If you're serious about the end of the month I could hold it for you possibly.....
MikanHannille Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Yup. Serious here. But I don't have a buyer for the Squier yet... So I can't guarantee anything as of the moment. :'(
