Original, early, made in Japan Yamaha Trb5P, 24 fret, ebony board, neck through, electronics all work great, including the piezo’s. Frets are in excellent condition and it plays wonderfully. Recently acquired it and while it’s an amazing bass, I already have a Trb5P ii and I prefer it. Has Dr pure blues 45-130 on it.. This bass is in good condition for its age, it has normal gold bridge tarnishing, small dings and stuff from 30 or so years of use. Weighs 9.6 lbs on my home scale. It will ship in an old Yamaha case, in decent shape. I’ll take $1550 shipped PayPal (no overseas) really looking to sell but I’d entertain trades for a EB MM bongo 5 HH (ebony board) or a EBMM stingray 5 or stingray special 5 (maple & ebony boards) or possible a Peavey Cirrus 5, Lull P5 l- trade value is $2k.
