This is for sale in my area, not affiliated in any way and sad I don't have $$ for it.

One of the guys I know here in Ohio brought one to one of our FDP Jams.  I gotta say, it sounded really nice.

And taketh no prisoners. One B string to rule them all.

I've become so used to 4 strings now I have not much use for it, it would be simply greed to have it - but it's nice and they're rare enough to be in my own backyard I'd grab it if I could. 

That said, my rev and non-rev are heading for some professional recording in the studio in two weeks for the first time ever!

It's somewhat ironic that the only major advertisement that TB Studio V has had came from "Metalocalypse" about a decade after Gibson stopped making them. I've played a couple and would love to have one.

Dave (PWV) was super nice and let me play his for a couple weeks, I really liked it even tho I'll never be a 5 string player. The Nasty Habits bass duties don't call for a 5er at all, but I freely admit it's a paint brush I'd love to have in my kit.

I tried one at go when they came out nice basses, but are really big!

Like holding an air craft carrier.
