Owen Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 I have a friend who just asked this question. I have no idea. Anyone? "I have a mid 90s TRB5ii. It has a scalloped lower horn and I've been unable to find photos or listings of any others like it. Were ones with this feature only available for a limited time period?"

AndyTravis Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 It’s a trb5 I don't think the ii had the “slap cut” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazed Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) The model is usually stamped on the head front or back, the ii models seem to have it on the back. The ii is a bolt on and as Andy mentioned don’t have the scallops - which aren’t the same as the slap cut on the JP models. as the slap cut . Although saying that there were several productions of them so there may be the odd anomaly. Helpful no? 😂 I think the original TRB 5 also had a split neck pickup whereas the later ii had soapbar shaped pickups. Bass direct have a TRB 5ii and a TRB 5P (piezo) in stock so you can see the differences https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Yamaha_TRB_5_II.html https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/Yamaha_TRB_5P.html Edited May 12, 2021 by Dazed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
