That's a real beauty.

I bought this recently from the original owner and it is a lovey bass in perfect condition - however, I am running out of space and trying to cut down to a core of 3 or 4 Fenders, so this one has to go. Standard 34” scale, active pre-amp, a bass which sounds as good as it looks, but I must sell before I get used to it! The price included the Ibanez standard case for the Premium range, a semi hard case. Even the original booklet is included. I paid £600.00 collected from the buyer and will sell for the same. Whoever buys this will not regret it (unless they are as tight for space as I am!)

This bass has now been sold I have to move this on, as it is in my way and I haven't played it for over a year, so have reduced the asking price by £250 to £1250 I bought this in January 2020, it has been used for one rehearsal and one gig since then. It is is in perfect condition, not a mark or sign of wear on it. I have not played it at home, so no dings or dents from random bits of furniture - it is in the same condition as I bought it. This bass has a mahogany body with bocote top (a wood I’ve never heard of, but it looks good!), fretboard is rosewood with abalone dots, and the hardware is black. Two Sandberg trapez pickups and Sandberg active preamp. The bass sounds and feels wonderful - I didn’t intend to buy another bass when I saw it, just picked it up to kill time, but soon realised I had to have it. To play and hear this bass is to need it! Several people have queried what looks like drops of wood stain on the light wood in the centre of the bass. I have discussed this with Sandberg and they assure me that this is not stain, as they do not use stain on these basses, just a clear satin finish to protect the wood. The dark marks in the lighter sapwood is simply the way in which the tree has grown, with a few parts of the dark outer wood mixing with the light sapwood. Comes with a Sandberg padded bag, but fits a standard Hiscox case (not included) I would much rather meet any prospective buyer so they can try it out properly and am reluctant to trust this beauty to a courier. I live near Oxford, please get in touch to arrange a time & place to meet and try this bass if you are seriously interested in buying. I paid £1950 for this piece of bass nirvana, and will sell it for £1350.
