Here is for sale my Yamaha TRB1005. I bought it a few years back from board member Carmine. It has not seen much use since I only use a five strings in the studio. (Those are Carmine's pics)
$485 + shipping

I just checked Ebay, the cheapest TRB1005 right handed is selling for $750. Those are incredibly well build and comfortable basses. Even a 4 string player like me feels at home with a TRB1005 due to the 19mm string spacing. I hate having to sell it but I am trying to pay off some credit cards before being unemployed next week.

Last chance before it goes on Ebay. You won't find a better fiver for the price. Just read the online reviews.
Anyone?

I went and visited Frenchy yesterday to see him before he moves away from my area. I played the Yamaha bass again. I must say, I really liked it and it played fan-freaking-tastic. The bass is well worth the price he is asking. Neck is straight as hell. Good balance and good weight.

Someone here should snag it. Its much nicer in person than in the pics. If I didn't have so many bills and 10 basses, I would have walked with it.

Désirable cette basse, Monsieur Frenchy. Le prix? Une aubaine! Quant à Sarcasmes sur glace, c'est délicieux.

The bass does not come with a case but it fits perfectly in a Fender case. No problem to ship to the East Coast ( I sold my Jazz Bass Deluxe to someone from the board who lives in New York). Tallboybass received today the fretless I shipped last week, he is in Oklahoma.

Merci bien! Normalement je chante sur ce morceau, je n'est pas fini les paroles et j'y travaille encore. J'ai simplement profite de l'occasion pour enregistrer les basses qui sont a vendre. J'ai pas l'impression que les Anglo-Saxons ca leur plait vraiment mais j'enregistre un album - reggae - pour les francophones de toute facons. Je viens de m'installer a Tahoe et j'ai maintenant tout le temps et l'equipement qu'il me faut. Aujourd'hui c'est mon premier jour dans ma nouvelle maison.
Ciao
Philippe
