🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ So my SR1206 is just a SR306. But i still want an ATK800 or 810 lol

Why have they been discontinued though? Twice! Why?

Hello everyone, I am based in France and on the hunt for an Ibanez ATK800 or ATK810 (+case). I have an Ibanez SR1206 with its case to trade for it, and i am deliberately choosing those ATKs because i want to stay in the Premium quality levels: My SR is awesome so i want to trade at same value/quality levels. Feel free to reach out to ask questions, see pics and discuss our future swap !

Yeah, i have been offering people on the second hand market here in France to swap either one of my two basses for the ones they are selling but they all are looking for smthg else...and i have no cash right now to buy unless i sell first...

That's on my list lol...

One more vote for Sire! I used to have a V3 which was flawless. Only moved it because i moved from one country to another. Now i have a P7 fretless

Quick question : what makes the 1996 version more desireable?? I initially wanted a BTB 6 string lol..

Hehe, my pleasure!

Really cool! I was born in 83 and if i could buy a birth-year bass, it would be that model! And i also play 6 strings exclusively now: Ibanez SR1206 and a recently rescued Peavey Grind 6 which i plan to turn into a fretless...

Hello everyone! I was thinking we could revive this thread? Just out of curiosity hehe First Bass: Cort Action Bass Go-to Bass: Ibanez SR1206 Your Bass: Ibanez SR1206 (Because it is the only bass i own, but will get a second one soon, hopefully!)

Not massively flat, just a little bit, but i feel responsible because i sold it to him. The strings are six weeks old, and the rest of my set up was spot on, be it pick-up height, intonation on the other strings and action... I will have him read this thread in case one of the scenarii you guys have mentioned looks like something he would have spotted! Thanks a lot for your help!

Yeah i agree that it is very unlikely that the bass would have a fret distance problem. The strings are GHS Precision Flats. He replaced the screw with one that is 1cm longer and sent me a picture. The saddle is all the way towards the pick-up, and the intonation is much better at the 24th fret but still not 100% perfect. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that the string is spot on at the nut and 12th fret, but flat at the 24th? How is it possible? Anyone else has any other idea than the possibility of a faulty string?

Hello everyone! I recently parted ways with my beloved Cort B5 Element (as i dont gig, nor have a band, and mostly use my 6 string to jam along to Youtube). I have been doing my own set ups for the past 10 years or so and, to me, that Cort was perfect in every way. Now: the buyer checked the intonation on the 12th fret of the G string and it was a bit flat, so he adjusted accordingly and got it to the right pitch. But now turns out the 24th fret is very flat. Admitedly, i had never checked the intonation there as i assumed that physically, if the bass was in tune at the nut and at the 12th fret, there was no reason why it would be any different at the 24th. Turns out it does happen, apparently. So i am turning to you in order to see why this is happening, and what options the buyer has to correct that little flaw. It only happens on that one string. Any ideas? Thank you in advance, everyone!

I love 6-string single-cut basses! Wish i had one!
