    Info on “Northern” Basses w/pics

    I’ve done a little digging and all I can find is that they may have been built by Yamaki in the 70’s. It’s got what looks like a soap bar pup in it just curious if this is worth buying for $200CAD?

    Traynor TC810 ... the Canadian fridge... Have you used one?

    There are a few threads, but they are older. The stats on this Canuckian beast are pretty stout. Any thoughts from those who have used them? The obvious comparison would be the Ampeg. I gather the Traynor gets "lower and louder". It appears to have nice rails on back. Most of the reviews are...

    Canadian members, questions.

    Who here from Canada has made a private purchase from a TB member in the United States? Did it go smoothly? Were you charged HST? Does anyone know if CITES is going to be a problem if the bass has an Indian rosewood board? Was the whole thing a poopie-show, and would you and the seller do it...

    The world should be envious of our sweet sweet Canadian deals!

    Our wonderful Nation Chain store. There was three other basses in various conditions from fair to very good all were within $40-100 of the cost of a brand new version of that same bass in the same store. Who in their right mind would buy these when there is a brand new exact model for $30 more?
