20mm?! Wow, that's even wider than standard 4 string basses! I believe Warwick broad necks also have 20mm spacing. I wonder if TRBs also have standard and broad neck versions.

I just measured my TRB-6P and I stand (partially) corrected; it's more like 19.5 center to center. That is to say from the center groove of each saddle to the next. It's definitely not 19, but it's also not 20...
Out of curiosity, what year is yours Aspidites? Mine is from 1992 and is a dual truss model.

Also a 1992 dual truss model and I love it.
Ah! I've always love the blue ones! I stopped myself from buying one last year on EBay...I'm glad I was outbid, I can't really justify having two of the same bass, even if it is my favorite 
. I'm convinced now too that the ruler I'm using must be off...it would also explain why my broadneck Warwick always felt wider...

How about some pics of your 6P?
I miss so much my TRB6PII selling it was a big mistake! 
I'm trying to get a TRB5PII but is very hard to find one

Which is why I will never sell my TRB5 or TRB6P.
I don't know why it took me so long to post pics of this thing. My 1004 with Q-tuners:

There's a TRB6II that someone is offering for $700. How is the sound of this one compared to TRB6Pll??

Mmmmm...Q-tuners! I love those things. I'm not a huge fan of that TRB series but the Q's must have definitely changed the sound quite a bit...?
Hey TRBers. I just scored a sunburst TRB-5 (original japanese) on craigslist for $300! It'll be my first TRB. It's in the mail on it's way. 
With all the great stuff I've been hearing about this bass it may actually become my A bass. It's missing the midrange EQ knob tho. Any suggestions on where I can find one? It looks like a pretty common knob from that era. Maybe another bass has the same knobs? Thanks.

It is a Yamaha sourced part, they went for $25.00 when I priced them.
That is why I stated it is Yamaha sourced. You have to go through the Yamaha parts department.
