CameronJ Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Very nice feeling basses. You pretty much can’t go wrong with a Yamaha. I played a TRB1005J in Yamaha Music London, however my opinion of it was tainted by playing a BB1025X straight afterwards which frankly made the TRB sound anemic by comparison. I know they have different pups, one is active and one is passive etc etc but still. I was only playing through a fairly small Hartke combo but the difference was stark. The TRB felt “faster” to play though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambient Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I've owned a few of the TRB basses. A TRB6, a JP1 and a TRB1006J. The TRB6 and the JP were both very old and Japanese built, they were a totally different level to the TRB1006, both being completely luthier built. The TRB1006J was though a very, very nice instrument, a lot better than the price would lead you to expect. A friend of mine who's a very, very fine solo bassist plays one, and loves it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
