Custom Yamaha TRB-4P 1990's Red Burst

Up for sale is a sought after and hardly found for sale, Yamaha TRB-4P Bass with piezo pickup. It is in excellent condition. It is a red sunburst and is a neck through construction. Comes with a plush Warwick gig bag.

I've owned this bass since 1996. I'm only selling because I've suffered an injury and can't play bass like I once did.

This bass has had the original p'ups replaced with active EMG's from the same era (they were already installed when I bought it in 1996). I don't know exactly what these p'ups are, but I can tell you that every studio engineer I've ever recorded with ALWAYS wanted to track THIS bass.

I live in the Salem/Portland Oregon area for local pickup. Or we can talk about proper shipping.

Features

Piezo Pickups in Solid Brass Bridge

The piezo pickups used on the TRB models use individual bimorphous piezo elements for each string, all built into a specially designed bridge which is machined from solid brass.

Figured Maple Body with Thru-neck Construction

The TRB-series basses feature figured maple bodies that offer the requisite tone as well as outstanding visual appeal.

Neck-thru Models

Because piezo pickups directly pick up the resonance of the instrument body, the body itself must be made from the finest woods and designed to deliver rich, deep tone. The neck-thru design of theses basses affords the best possible foundation for this amazing sound.
