For sale is a 2000 five-string Toby Pro 5 from the Korean Tobias Gibson line. Not to be confused with the budget Epiphone Toby Deluxe - these are guitars from a completely different shelf.
By using noname hardware, Tobias was able to focus on the fundamentals in the Toby Pro: wood and finish. So here we have NTB construction, maple wings with a striking top, a walnut and maple neck and a thick piece of rosewood on the fingerboard. The quality of the fit is excellent, the frets are hammered in like a 10k paddle. The fairly heavy wood resonates brilliantly and gives long sustain. The slightly asymmetrical, typical Tobias neck is fast and ergonomic. A lot of people on the internet recommend replacing the preamp, which is the weakest point - although it sounds selective and singable, it has limited power (the bass is just quite quiet, you have to set the amp a bit louder than with other axes ). The sound of the wood is very impressive, you can rouse the household.
I rate the condition as very good minus - the frets and neck look great, but the back of the body shows quite a few scratches, evidently from the belt The bass has a great action, less than 1.5mm above the 12th fret.
Can be played in Poznan, Poland or shipped, Tobias soft case included.
