  1. [quote name='Chris2112' post='1339723' date='Aug 14 2011, 04:26 PM']Has that been defretted? If so, looks like a good job, perhaps a luthier has been over it?[/quote]



    I am as sure as i can be that the bass was produced in the Yamaha factory as a fretless.

    The bass has a great tone and has the best neck shape / profile of all the TRB's that i have owned, very easy to play.

  2. Just wanted to share some pictures of my latest bass guitar.

    It's a Yamaha TRB fretless mk 1 :)

    I have the 5 string version of this bass in the same finish and it is awesome!
    I'd love to check out the 6 string at some point. It would probably weigh about the same as a small planet though :)

  5. [quote name='AttitudeCastle' post='1329727' date='Aug 6 2011, 11:19 AM']Do they still make the TRB6ps?

    I know a new line of TRBs are coming out before too long and have been designed in collab. with Mark from Bass direct

    I'd personally make sure i had one with Piezos and i'd be happy! :)

    All the sound clips of the TRB6ps i've heard have been awesome, but whats the actual difference?[/quote]


    No, they don't make the Trb6p's anymore.
    You can only get them second hand.

    I had no idea that there were new TRB's on the way ! Very exciting !

    Do you have any details / specs of the instruments ?

  6. As the title ...........

    I own a TRB 5pII and a TRB 6 II and love them both. They both sound very different .

    Can anyone please tell me if there is much difference in tone between the TRB6 , TRB6p , TRB6 II & TRB6pII ?

    Has anyone played / owned any of the above ??

    I have been watching the " dirty Loops" the bass player uses a TRB6p.
    I have also been watching " Magazine gap" tim the bass layer uses a TRB 6 pII.

    I have some real bad gas for a TRB 6p now !
    I don't think that i can hold it in for much longer :)

  7. I love the look of these guitars but never had the chance to try one of these out.

    Is there much tone difference between the Pino and USA standard precision?

    You'd be better off just listening rather than watching the videos. As soon as you see the bassist's haircut you'll be wanting to punch him in the face because of his stupid haircut! Nice tone though.

    :)

    I will let him off but only because the dude can really play :)

  9. I just had a thought ............

    If you like the sound of a TRB then check out "magazine gap" a real tight funky / jazzy / pop sort of band .
    Tim ( bass player ) uses a Yamaha TRB 6 pII.

    The album is well worth getting a copy of.

  10. [quote name='brick' post='1326525' date='Aug 4 2011, 09:36 AM']its a 3 peice band doing jazzy/funky covers of pop songs, bass player uses a TRB6 with the piezo pick up i think

  11. [quote name='EBS_freak' post='1323996' date='Aug 2 2011, 11:15 AM']Let me guess, you watched the Dirty Loops vids and now you have TRB gas?[/quote]



    What is the dirty loops vid's ?
    Could you please point me in the right direction, im a real TRB fan :)

  12. I bought Graham's beautiful Yamaha TRB fretless bass guitar.

    The whole process was fantastic. Quick responce to PM's and great communication.
    The bass was just as discribed and even better in the flesh :)

    The TRB was well packaged for postage and arrived very quickly.

    Graham is a sound guy , i would highly recomend dealing with.
    Thanks again Graham , I shall take great care of the bass.

    Best regards
    Chris
