YAMAHA has been a pillar of the Japanese guitar-making industry since its dawn, akin to Japan's Gibson.
Many top-tier musicians, including Nathan East and John Patitucci, favor Yamaha basses.
While the company boasts renowned models like the SBV, SG, and BB, the TRB series stands alongside them as a beloved classic.
The body primarily uses Mahogany, while the neck combines Maple and Mahogany in a 5-piece laminate construction.
This rational design minimizes individual variation and reduces warping.
The fingerboard is likely Indonesian Rosewood.
Indonesia is actually one of the world's leading timber exporters, renowned for its diverse and high-quality native woods.
The modern body design possesses a refined balance, delivering superb playability and excellent string vibration.
Powerful electronics produce a low-noise sound with punchy, gutsy low end.
The circuit, combining a powerful humbucking pickup with a smart preamp, is naturally high quality.
Approximately 90% of the frets remain.
The truss rod is in good condition.
The neck shows signs of slight bowing upward. Currently adjusted with 2.5mm at the G string and 3.3mm at the B string at the 12th fret, it plays perfectly fine.
The body and finish show scattered minor scratches and dents.
The electronics are in good condition.
No obvious modifications were found.
