razze06 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I've got this Ibanez SR800LE, made in japan, bought it new in 1991 or so (bought it on the same day I bought BSSM by RHCP). For a long time it lived in my parents' house in Italy, and when I picked it up I found that the pot that pans betwen the pickups doesn't work anymore. The repair guy said he couldn't fix it, as the pot is infact a much more complicated piece of kit, with a circuit board attached to it. My question is: where can I buy the replacement part? Is there an dealer that has old ibanez parts? Anyone has got one spare? Let me know, it's a lovely bass that has been ill for a long time and wants to come back to full health!

razze06 Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 After several months, i decided to try and sort this out, but with little luck so far. Headstock distribution and cottam guitars don't stock anything as old as that, so I thought I would try and find out the actual part number. Anybody knows where to look for a schematics or at least a spec sheet? Ibanez forum has nothing older than 1994, but I have an inkling that this bass may use use of these: [url="http://www.ibanez.com/parts/2000_PARTS/El-Bass/Pix-EQ.htm#VM3"]EQ PCB II[/url] Unfortunately, the bass in question is in Italy, so I can't just open it up and check...
