golltoppr Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) Bought from Bass Direct last year. Here is a link with all the info: https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/TRB1005J.html My thoughts (if useful) are that it has a great neck and is really well put together. The preamp is bright, and as such I prefer the sound with dead roundwounds. The bass is reasonably heavy, but not ridiculous. The bass has not been gigged. £600 includes TGI semi-rigid bag and UK Shipping. Can meet within 50 miles of Bathgate, central Scotland. Not open to trades. If you have any question don't hesitate to ask. Thanks! Angus p.s. here's an instagram link to me practicing with the bass: https://www.instagram.com/p/CL19vRZjAc3/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Edited September 21, 2021 by golltoppr Gone to bass direct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I have one in natural and even with the treble rolled all the way down I still need a bit of foam under the bridge to curb the high end. Great basses though!

golltoppr Posted August 27, 2021 Author Share Posted August 27, 2021 @Allaboutthebass I know the feeling. And I agree, my perfect 5 string would be passive. However, at this price point you have to make some compromises. I'll add some salesman sleaze in that you wont lose much money for the exploration (I did that for you to the tune of £230).

golltoppr Posted September 9, 2021 Author Share Posted September 9, 2021 Still here fellow bass enjoyers. I'd like to move this quickly so don't feel shy about offers. Again, I'd like to reiterate I'm not interested in trades. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
