I really like this bass, it's a really playable instrument. I'm just not playing it much. I have an MTD and a Warwick that I've grown very fond of.

Does Yamaha make the 4 string version of this bass left handed?

Same reason you drink it for 4 strings. ;)

I don't drink haterade for 5 strings, just bass models not available in 4 string. :)

great bass, yamaha has to be one of the most underrated instrument companys around, they cut down on production costs by buying their own forest, and this bass is the 5 string version of the john pattatuci signature 6 string and imo has a beautiful tone for soloing....sigh wish i had the cash to buy it myself

I used to have a TRB5II, my first 'proper' bass after playing a Condor (MIJ) plywood Jazzbass for a year, and it was a great bass. Warm yet tight and very versatile. They were the last Japanese-made TRB's (if you don't count the Pattitucci), the TRB100x's are now made in Taiwan. But they still have the same build quality, hardware and electronics and are still great basses, I had the chance to compare them once. Very nice basses.
