    Roscoe century 6 or Yamaha TRB ii 6

    I need help deciding whether it's worth it to trade in my century roscoe 6 for a mint TRB ii 6. My Roscoe is the standard plus. I've always wanted a Japanese Yamaha and To find one Mint might not happen again. But I know my bass is the more superior bass.
