AndyTravis Posted September 14, 2017 Posted September 14, 2017 (edited) Bought as I really missed having an active bass, having sold my Aria SB1000... This is a great bass, and I've loved having it; it's in better condition than some basses I've bought as "new". The reality is, I've got a white 64 Jazz I use for everything (it's in one of the pictures) and that's why I'd sold the Aria in the first place. There's another Yamaha up for sale for the same reason - I'm a big fan of Yamaha gear, and I've owned everything from the BB300 up to the TRB5pii so take it as an endorsement! Love this era of Yamaha, this is a light bass (probably about 8.5lbs) has vol/blend/bass/treble and has got a great sound, balances well and is nice and compact. 24 frets. Looks great in sunburst - more regularly seen in white and blue. Relatively new light strings. No case: shipping at buyers own risk for £15 in U.K. https://instagram.com/p/BX3wlzxDo89/ https://instagram.com/p/BX5sRnHD-WU/ https://instagram.com/p/BYjdZu9jSvY/ Edited October 30, 2017 by AndyTravis
AndyTravis Posted September 16, 2017 Author Posted September 16, 2017 Bump. I took some nice photos of this I can share via email or text. Andy
AndyTravis Posted September 16, 2017 Author Posted September 16, 2017 [quote name='songofthewind' timestamp='1505590950' post='3373090'] Nice. What's the nut width? [/quote] 40mm so not scrawny but not wide
AndyTravis Posted September 18, 2017 Author Posted September 18, 2017 Bump £230 New gear (not basses...) arriving this week so would like to have this gone. Andy
Higgie Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 Had one of these years ago. So good I bought the 5 string version too! Excellent value for money these are. Whoever buys it won't be disappointed. Have a free bump on me!
AndyTravis Posted September 25, 2017 Author Posted September 25, 2017 £200 plus £15 to post in the UK OR £150 plus £15 plus a Korg Pitchblack Rack tuner. Thanks
AndyTravis Posted September 27, 2017 Author Posted September 27, 2017 Thought this was on its way tonight but guy pulled out at 11tg hour with broken car issues. Anyone after a cute great sounding and very tidy bass?
Marc S Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) I've got a Yamaha TRB5 and I can definitely vouch for the quality of Yam basses This one is an absolutely lovely colour, and looks a great bass for that sort of money I already have too many, as many of us do lol - but if I was looking for a great value bass, I'd be sorely tempted by this GLWTS EDIT: PS - really like the look of that semi-acoustic... another bass in a lovely colour Edited September 28, 2017 by Marc S

Elfrasho Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 Aye, actually I realised I could click on his name after I'd posted! Doh
