ELECTRIC BASS: TRB (TR) SERIES
The TR Series were introduced in 1991 with model TR700, TR800, and TR900. These models were listed in the first 1991 price list, but did not appear in the catalog. The TR700 and TR800 featured a mahogany body, while the TR900 featured a mahogany body with a maple top. The TR series was quickly changed to the TRB series by 1992, and models TRB1, TRB2, TRB3, and TRB15 Five-String were produced between 1992 and 1993. An entire new line of TRB models were introduced in 1994. In 1996 all current models were changed back to the TR designation, and in 1998, the TR series was discontinued but replaced by the GTR Series.
