Yamaha TRB 1005

So here's the story (I start all my threads like this because I like telling stories :P)
So I went to a Guitar Center today and I walked straight to the Bass section I played a few and then all the sudden I noticed this bass in natural finish. I do not own a 5er but I want one in the future. This bass felt amazing I loved the size of the neck (thick but not to thick) string spacing was perfect for me. It was used for $600 but it was in perfect condition. I didn't have the money for it so I just took note of the model and thought I'd look online and buy one I'm the future when I did have the money. I look online on the Yamaha website and it looked like they still made them but i looked around at multiple websites and they said the product has been discontinued and have read that they have been discontinued but there still on the Yamaha website. So could I go into a store that carries Yamahas and order one?
 
i agree that there amazing for the price. having never played many 5'ers in the past i was surprisingly really comfortable with the 1005. Loved the electronics also, played through a GK Neo 115 and Neo 410 into a GK 700Rb and it sounded amazing IMO. I also play through a GK so i would love to hear it through mine.
