Martin E Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I bought this bass a couple of months ago from a very nice chap on here. After a lifetime of playing a 4 string this was my first ever dip into 5 string territory. This really is a nice instrument and the active sounds are fantastic but I.'ve decided 5 strings are really not for me (think old dogs and new tricks). So it's up for grabs again. I would like £280 for this please which think is probably spot on for a bass of this quality and condition. The bass has a few minor dings which are a bit tricky to photograph on a natural satin wood finish but otherwise is in fine condition, has a brand new set of light guage Elites, a perfect setup/action and comes with the correct Ibanez hardcase. I would prefer collection at this stage and indeed would prefer if you came and tried out the bass for yourself – I'm in West Sussex. For more info there are several very favourable reviews of this instrument on the web but the headline spec is as follows: Maple & walnut neck, rosewood fingerboard, 24 frets Walnut body with maple top & back 35” scale Bartolini Mk1 pickups 18v active electronics 3 band EQ with variable mid sweep Neutric locking jack.
