timo Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I have a TRB-6II that I've had for a few years. I'm playing much more double bass than electric now and I also recently acquired a Paulman 5 string which I've been using on the odd occasion that I get to play electric. Being a student with a severe eBay/instrument buying addiciton its about time I sold something so I think its time to part with old Bertha but I have no idea what to sell it for. It's in pretty good nick, couple of minor dings and a chip in the varnish on the back I assume from a belt and has the original Yamaha hard case. I can't find any others on the internet to get an idea of price from except a few 4 and 5 strings on the bay which can be anything from £250 upwards. Can anyone tell me what its worth?

timo Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Yeah no problem. Just send it in a diamond encrusted envelope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_russ Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 hmm, not quite sure what they're going for now - I'm sure I've seen them in the past selling for about £400-450 - I'm actually looking to get one so let me know when you've decided on a price. I've got a lakland bob glaub up for sale/trade if that interests you at all? R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I've got the same one (bolt on neck with two truss rods & ash body?) Awesome bass. Want me to make you an offer? I'd love another one! As a guide, I paid £450 for mine in mint condition Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timo Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Ooh thats good I was hoping it might be about £450 ish. Its the bolt on, dual truss rod, ash body with amber finish. I'll get some pictures up tomorrow when I'm home again. mr_russ expressed his interest first so I I'll give him first refusal. I live in Halifax, West Yorkshire and I'm at uni in York so I could be in either of those locations if anyone wants to come have a look and a play. P.S. Should I start a new thread in the for sale section or is this ok here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutToPlayJazz Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 I'd put it up on the basses for sale forum to be honest... You won't get any interest over here Like this one...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timo Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 Thats the beast, ta Rich. I'll make it a new home on the other board tomorrow then. I've PM'd mr_russ for now so if he decides he's not interested you're more than welcome to get your hands on it! Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
