silverfoxnik Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Gorgeous.. Having owned a late 80s/early 90s Tobias Classic 5 string, I have no doubt at all that this will be a similarly brilliant bass! GLWTS 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbassman_de Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 That is a wonderful bass in excellent condition for this age ! The top seems to me more like Ebony which should contribute to an overall quicker response.. What are the two switches for ? The original TCT Preamp had no switches. Anyway a piece of history ! And one of the nicest bass designs ever imho... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiesb001 Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 That's correct, they made long ago two modifications the first one is a passief/active switch and the secound one gives extra boost on the mid frequentie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sselterf Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 In between the Signature and the Basic model, the Classics were the best. IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
