slingo Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 (edited) Rare opportunity to buy this beautiful fretless bass. This bass just growls and is just gorgeous to behold, finished in charcoal black with the transparent high gloss finish allowing the grain to show through. Bolt on 35" scale neck is maple with fret-lined rosewood fingerboard. It is fitted with 3 band EQ, bass and treble boost/cut, 3 way mid selectable mid switch, master volume and pickup pan, and Yamaha's own brilliant active hum-cancelling bass humbucker pickups. Machine heads and bridge are gold-plated. NB There is one tiny little ding underneath (i.e. the bit that would rest on your knee if you were sitting down to play). Its about 1mm square, if that. Apart from that it is in mint condition. Supplied in fitted plush-lined Yamaha hard case. The case alone currently retails for £110. There are a few minor marks and cuts on the case as you would expect with general wear and tear. This is a very reluctant sale but it's not being used so has to go to a good home. More photos available on request. Please note [u]this is the superior series one Japanese bass[/u] not the series two or the Korean TRB 1005 Serious offers £350 ono Edited January 12, 2011 by slingo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
