605 is supposedly 18mm, same as the 1025. If you want a Yamaha 5 with full 19mm spacing you're probably talking about a TRB 5P Mk 1, which seem to have soared in value recently 😞

Yes massive price difference aside, the TRB is a different sound. I've had the 1025x and currently a 425 and feel the string spacing is ok,certainly better than the older Yamaha 5s. Not sure on the current versions of the BB, but I don't think a 19mm exists on a BB.
