Sign in to disble this ad
Only had this for about a month, and I just can't get used to the 6 string. Maybe one day. For now I'll stick to 4's and 5's. Haven't seen any of the old TRB's in a natural finish like this before. Believe me, the wood is beautiful in person. Overall it's in pretty good shape, there is some minor nicks in the headstock which I will photograph if someone wants, but it's nothing major and what you'd expect. Comes with a Wolfpak, missing a pair of the rubber feet though. WolfPak Bass Guitar Polyfoam Case and more Stringed Instrument Cases, Gigbags & Covers at GuitarCenter.com.
No longer interested in trades, I need to sell this to finance a double bass. I'd like to sell this for $1550 $1300 shipped CONUS OBO. Comes with a free bonus set of D'Addario EXL170-6 strings, which is what is is currently strung with.  IMAG0078 by Cody Hanson1, on Flickr

Couldn't be a re-finish, could it? The grain is too awesome for that to have ever been painted in the first place. Bet the upper register tone is super creamy.
Wow, would I love to get my hands on this but it just isn't in the cards for now.
Cheers.

Perhaps the earlier models came in different finishes, or it was one of the first ones? Maybe not, to be honest I don't know. And if it is refinished I don't think it detracts from the beauty of this bass.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2008 Location: Napa, California | | | Yes I believe this is MIJ as the older TRBs were. The 6PII is the newest version of this model. Different woods, electronics, scale length, but the overall concept of the bass is the same.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Feb 2009 Location: Philadelphia | | | Ha! I bid against you for this bass on ebay last month! Sorry, can't go that high, but love the unique condition of this bass. Yes, they did NOT make a satin natural finish on the TRB-6P's - this has to be somebody's strip/refin job - nicely done too. (check the control or pickup cavities for any color remnants). If I recall the auction, the pickups are original, but the preamp was swapped out and the piezo bridge pickup is disconnected.
Here's a Good Luck Bump!

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2008 Location: Napa, California | | | The piezo is definitely not disconnected. You can see the "Yamaha" logo on the pickups, though it is very worn away and barely there. I opened up the control cavity and the circuit board says Yamaha. No signs of the original finish. Make me an offer if the price is too high. Any offer will be considered

Good luck! |
