NBD - Yamaha TRB5II

Post by Stingray5 »

thanks to Carmine I was able to score this beauty I've been wanting for a long while, and she arrived in tune and perfectly set up. Sounds great and plays like a dream. For a 20 y/o instrument it's also practically NOS with hardly a scratch and almost no playing wear. I swapped out the black knobs to fully embrace the gold hardware :)

Thanks for the kind words Aaron. Good thing I hadn’t played it for awhile... if I had, I probably would have talked myseelf out of letting it go ;) ... easiest 5 string to play that I ever encountered. I was able to set it up to where it practically plays itself- and I absolutely love the tone of TRBs!

BTW, I like the look of those gold knobs you put on, nice match with the rest of the hardware:
