Up for sale is this Yamaha TRB5P that I just got in trade. Its a beautiful sounding and playing bass, but i think I prefer a string spacing thats less than 19mm.
The Bass is in great condition, and the original hardcase is also there.
Its the sought-after 90s neck through version, with the Piezos and Ebony board, and the 33 7/8 inch scale.
I am asking 1100 Euros or best offer on this one. Might also consider a trade. Bass is located in Germany. e-mail me for questions or pics: [email protected]

sunday morning bump

I keep struggling whether or not i want to let go of this one, but this time i will put it up for sale. a few people have contacted me when i posted this for trade a couple of weeks ago, and since i cant remember who took interest in this bass first, i will post it here right away before contacting you again. so here we go again:
has been one of my favorite basses, also cause I am a big Hadrien Feraud fan. The bass sounds awesome and playabilty is great with the tight spacing and low action. It is a 5 string [color=red][size=4]Ken[/size][/color] [color=red][size=4]Smith[/size][/color] [color=red][size=4]Burner[/size][/color] with a walnut/quilted maple body and a 5 piece maple and walnut neck. It is in great condition, the only thing worth mentioning is a mark in the laquer (not wood) on the upper part of the body. Case is included, as well as Hadrien Feraud's chops ;-) bass is located in Germany. Mail me for pics and soundclips ([email protected]) Price is 1350 Euros or nearest offer. thanks for looking.

bump

weekend bump! (these are great and underestimated basses. I have a 4 string which I am keeping, and it was hard for me to decide whether I keep this Guild Pilot 5 or my Ken Smith Burner 5)

new price: 700 euros.

thanks for the info, thats it. and crazy chops btw.

hey thanks for your answer. 7mm? that would be rather tight ;-) maybe you mean 17?

new price: 750 euros.

hey whats the string spacing and is it adjustable?

For sale is this beautiful Guild Pilot 5 String:

Specs are:

Made in USA somewhere between 1986-87
Solid Flamed Maple Body
Amber Burst Finish
Maple Neck
Rosewood Fingerboard
EMG Pick ups
Vol, Vol, Tone Control
original guild hardshell case included

The Bass is in great condition, only has a few little marks on the back and headstock, which I cannot really capture in pictures. One of the tuners is missing the black metal cover on the back of the headstock as can be seen in the pictures. This is only a very minor cosmetic issue. Also this Bass might have been a fretless in the past, but I bought as a fretted bass. I never noticed it but someone pointed this out to me, as the side dots are more like on the frets and not exactly in between. I just put on a set of fresh Daddario strings. It plays great with nice low action and has a very slim neck (feels like 17mm bridge spacing) for fast playing. I am looking for 800 euros or best offer for this Bass. I am willing to ship within Europe, bass is located in Germany. If you want more pics or have any other questions, just email me. [email protected] Thanks for looking.

great bass!! how was the bridge shifted? were there any new holes drilled etc.?

on hold

actually was thinking of keeping it, but maybe there is a nice trade offer, who knows...

good stuff

i played an amazing jv squier jazz bass, and some not so good nyc fodera...but then again i guess its more about economic (resell) value and hype ;-)

I dont really know what the value of this bass is, but I guess around 1000-1200 pounds or something? I really am open for trades so if its a trade + cash in either direction, it might work as well.

Ken Smith Burner

This has been my favorite bass, also cause I am a big Hadrien Feraud fan, but at the moment I am looking for something a little bit different and thats why I might let this one go. The bass sounds awesome and playabilty is great with the tight spacing and low action. It is a 5 string Ken Smith Burner with a walnut/quilted maple body and a 5 piece maple and walnut neck. It is in great condition, the only thing worth mentioning is a mark in the laquer (not wood) on the upper part of the body. Case is included, bass is located in Germany. Mail me for pics and soundclip ([email protected]).
As for trades just tell me what you have and lets see. Looking for a high quality, easy playing bass.
Thanks for looking.

sorry guys, but the bass just sold.

Hi Ruck. I lent the bass to a fellow bassist for a couple of days so I cant record right now but If he decides not to buy it, I will make clips for you. The pick ups arent true single coils, but stacked humbuckers (i think), and they really sound like single coils to me, but are dead silent. Christoph Dolf makes some amazing pick ups. If I wasnt in need of some cash, I would keep this bass, and string it E-C (sounds awesome that way and its a fast player).
