[bagsieblue]

SOLD

[size=4][color=#282828]Up for sale is my Japanese made, Yamaha TRB-4P.

Excellent build quality through neck Japan TRB with Piezo bridge which when dialled in gives added clarity to the overall tone.

With original case – bass is in great condition for a 22 year old bass, just one small nick behind the bridge and some small scuffs on the tip of the headstock - see pictures.

Serial number dates the bass to 1993 - Copy and paste of the blurb and specs below:[/color][/size]

[b] Piezo Pickups in Solid Brass Bridge[/b]

[color=#000000]The piezo pickups used on the TRB models use individual bimorphous piezo elements for each string, all built into a specially designed bridge which is machined from solid brass.[/color]
[b] Figured Maple Body with Thru-neck Construction[/b]

[color=#000000]The TRB-series basses feature figured maple bodies that offer the requisite tone as well as outstanding visual appeal.[/color]

[b] Neck-thru Models[/b]

[color=#000000]Because piezo pickups directly pick up the resonance of the instrument body, the body itself must be made from the finest woods and designed to deliver rich, deep tone. The neck-thru design of theses basses affords the best possible foundation for this amazing sound.[/color]

These are stunning basses that feel and sound way above their price. I only sold the one I had because it was around 9.4lbs, which is a little heavy for me.

I used to want one of these so much back in the early 90's, real class.

I have a TRB5p, had it from birth in 1990. Don't sell it....you'll regret it! Best bass I ever owned, still use it as my main goto.

See??..this is a perfect example of the madness that is the "For Sale" section of this forum..fantastic bass with high quality parts, built properly to a high standard for a very reasonable price and it still hasn't sold...complete madness!!

Have a bump..
