[b]Update: Sold on Gumtree but I am now selling the other one. Same Spec but in as new condition with 4 hrs on the clock.[/b]

Yamaha TRBX504 in Stealth/Matte Black - £260 Delivered (possibly a bit more if shipping is to EU)

Recently bought from a fellow BCer but then a GMR caught my eye, and - well you know how the rest goes! I actually bought 2 of these from Basschat within 2 days of each other (one from Marvin, the other from Vinny) as I was going to have Jon Shuker (Shuker Basses) fit a fretless fingerboard to one of them, however I am now going for a complete neck replacement on the GMR so one of the Yamahas has to go. I will be keeping the other as it is a total slap machine.

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Great build quality and has some really great features. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]It has both active and passive options. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I have all sorts of plates and pins in my left wrist yet I have found the[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] neck to be slim and very easy to play, similar to the Ibanez SR range. [/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The bass is well balanced and sits nicely on a strap. I was blown away by the build quality of these models and I believe they wipe the floor with other guitars in their price range.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]It's in excellent condition and has still got the plastic that sits around the controls to say what they do. [/font][/color]
