Yamaha TRB4P value?

[bpwb]

Anyone have any idea what the market would be on a Yamaha TRB4P these days. I am thinking about selling mine and haven't a clue what it's worth. I have been keeping an eye out for another one and I have yet to have seen another. I think it is pretty rare.

* 24 fret ebony fingerboard, dot inlays. Laminated neck through design
* Active electronics with piezo in bridge. P/J pickup type configuration
* Maple body, laminated maple neck.
* Solid black finish. Very durable. Gold hardware.
* Gotoh tuners 2 a side.
* 34" scale. In between a J and P profile.

Thanks for any feedback!

Is it a Japanese one?
I might be interested if you send me a PM.

If that's your price, I'm buying it.

They often go for around $500-$600.

Yes it is made in Japan. I was figuring the $600 dollar range was right but wasn't sure cause I have only seen 5 string versions of it and I have been looking and looking and looking and can't find another one. I am considering selling mine. It is the wine red color sort of burst around the edges. I will include a couple pictures. It is in really great shape except one pretty big chunk in the tip of the headstock. It was that way when I bought it. Obviously that would reduce the price a fair amount but I have also made an inquiry with my local guitar repair guy for an estimate of repair. Thinking about having it fixed and then sell or maybe just keep it. If I were to sell it, I am not willing to ship outside the US. No offense intended to you foreigners but I have just had too many problems with international transactions that I won't go there any more. I know that it not what you want to hear but that is my choice.

Keep it! Those TRB's are so immensly awesome...

If you have a friend in the US that would be willing to ship to you, I would be more than happy to sell it to you and ship to your friend. Just a thought. There is always a way if you are determined.
