StanS Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) Having slept on it, I can't sell it for the money its likely to fetch Sad sale of last bit of gear. Giving up after 40 years Yamaha TRB5P2, unmarked except for a tiny spot near pick-up (see photo 5 - need good eyesight ! Ignore the reflection of the flash !) Still got plastic film on back plastic cover. Straplock retainers + original retainers. Strap. Comes with: guitar stand Hard case (unused) New (in box) set Swing Bass strings Boss Chorus pedal approx 5 quality assorted leads £1000 min, or I'm happy to keep it ! I hear they are no longer making TRB's ??????? If so, I may keep it as an investment ! (half hoping it doesn't go !)

Chris2112 Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 It's worth noting that Munji (or whatever his name was) from Talkbass, who has been through hundreds of basses, including Fodera, Alembic, Sadowsky, Ken Smith etc etc - the best of whatever field you look at - rated his Yamaha TRB bass as highly as any. These things are seriously mint basses, and the quality if comparable to the big name boutique stuff IMO! Nice bass, good luck with the sale!

StanS Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Cheers Chris. I think its a good instrument as well. I had a thing for Wal's in the 80's - also great (IMHO !) ! See how it goes. Its the 4th time in 40 years I've "given up", but this retirement lark offers opportunities which are not compatible with gigging. I may end up keeping it if I can't get sensible money for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
