I believe the RB stands for “Rocco’s bass” as the RB series of basses were designed in conjunction with Rocco Prestia. I liked the non soapbar pickup type and placement for a six string.
The body is swamp ash with a burl maple top. The neck finish is gloss on the fingerboard and bare wood on the back which has been regularly waxed to a nice smooth sheen and feel. Pickups are Aguilar and the pre-amp is an Aguilar OBP2. Bass has been owned by me from new and has been babied in the year I’ve owned it. Never been out the house. 
It’s also extremely light on the shoulder. Will need to weigh it but will be surprised if it’s too much over 8lbs.
Would like to keep this but as usual I have my eyes on other things.

How does the B sound for a 34" string thru? 

Beautiful looking bass and great price!

The B is fine. Sounds as clear as the B on both my Overwater Aspiration Elite (35”) or Ibanez fan fret 6 (35.5”) Never gave the 34” scale on the LTD much thought tbh. I used to feel the same about the Stingray 5’s I owned and I know they’re well thought of.
