Marvin Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) [b]Yamaha TRBX504 in black - Price Drop £230[/b] Great build quality and has some really great features. It has both active and passive options. The active circuit enables good adjustments. The passive is a really handy feature, firstly if you've forgotten to pack any spare batteries but also I've used it to achieve a very convincing old school tone. (The passive tone control can sound a bit 'on or off') The neck is slim and very easy to play, similar to the Ibanez SR range. The bass is well balanced and sits nicely on a strap and I've found it comfortable even when playing for long periods of time.

When not being played it's kept in a hard foam case (the case isn't included I'm afraid). I've still got the box and packaging it came in, so postage is an option (by arrangement).

Mornats Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 These have really nice necks and a great range of tones. Very solidly built too. And light! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvin Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 I'm afraid we only have this lovely Translucent Black example, we never stocked white [quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1425207817' post='2704968'] These have really nice necks and a great range of tones. Very solidly built too. And light! [/quote] The necks are nice and slim, bit like an Ibanez SR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
