bubinga5 Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 (edited) I have decided to sell my Yamaha TRB5 because of a family financial problem.. its a mid 90's bass.. the MK1 (after) the MK1 P.. there is no doubt, this bass is amazing.. a real pro feeling bass for not too much money... really good condition but the bridge has tarnishing.. a few small dings here and there.. the tone is amazing, lots of power with growl and punchy mid range bass....for those who may not know these are a world apart from the 1000 series, i would say they play better than a Lakland 55-02 with it being a 34 inch scale. and to my ears the tone is way better the Yamaha EQ is externally and internally adjustable, with its internal finger wheels, and pozi drive cut and boost.... i cant weigh the bass but its not heavy.. lighter than my old Fender custom shop 4.... its hard to price these basses as not many come up.. i will start off at 500 squid.. im open to offers but these basses are worth this imo.. if my family financial problem resolves itself i will withdraw this bass..

Thornybank Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Totally killer axes. Sold mine to Andy67 about 15 years ago. There was nothing to touch it back then.
carlsim Posted January 3, 2012 Posted January 3, 2012 quite interested in this... my only issue would be collecting... are you able to post??? I sold a fretless version of this a while back for around £400... could i tempt you around that price??
