  1. SOLD Purchased this bass from PMT in June, it arrived on June 24th in perfect condition and I put it in the rack. I have played it about three times, I would say for a total of 10-12 minutes. I have just been busy playing fretless and now I’ve bought a fretted Rob Allen so that bass has my fretted acoustic bass needs covered. The bass is in as new condition and retail for around £600 at the moment. The bass is extremely light and has that Ibanez quality way beyond price point thing about it. It also has a slim fast neck that all my previous Ibanez SR models seem to have that makes it extremely easy to move around. With the absence of pickups, the dusty end of the neck Is shaped in such a way that it can be used as a comfortable thumb rest. Socially distanced collection or happy to deliver/meet within a reasonable distance. No trades or offers please, you are essentially getting a brand new £600 bass for less than half price. Here is the official blurb from Ibanez and below some pics of the bass. Please feel free to ask any questions or request more pics.
  2. Just sayin’
  3. Damn, I was often down your way before the lockdown started, you could have had a go! I'll see what I can do. It sounds the same essentially but a little more clanky thanks to the frets and the strings are much newer than those on the fretless.
  4. I feel as I've come full circle. When I started out on BC in Nov 2014 I had acoustic basses exclusively and it's been a bit of a whirlwind trying, buying and selling lots of solid bodied electric basses looking for one that stuck. I should have learned my lesson in May 2018 when I purchased a fretless Rob Allen Mouse from @WishIcouldplay, I loved this bass totally. So, this morning I headed, oddly enough, back to see @WishIcouldplay in order to buy his fretted Rob Allen Mouse which is now in the rack at Chez Blank, both the ACGs are on their way to new owners which leaves me with a brand spanking new Ibanez SRH500 which I only bought because I'd given up on a fretted Mouse ever becoming available, it'll be up for sale soon. So is this set up, fretted and fretless Mice, Hx Stomp and a QSC K12.2 the final GAS killer? I suppose we shall see...

  6. Listening to The Cardiacs on an episode of Stuart Maconie’s Freak Zone, where have this band been all my life, loving it...
  7. It’s details like this that make @Andyjr1515’s builds absolute class.
  8. I've just reduced it, if you're still thinking...
  9. Now reduced to £1000, need to get this sold as I have seen a bass I want to buy.
