chuck_stones Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 (edited) Got this in a trade recently and whilst it's freaking awesome, I need cash and don't have cause to keep it, so it's gotta go. In near mint condition; Korean made Ibanez ATK 700 Light ash body Maple fretboard, jumbo frets 5-piece laminate BO neck (Birdseye maple and possibly Wenge?) Blue Moon finish with (5mm) quilted maple top. Massive bridge plate with string through body option. 3-band EQ, Ibanez ATK triple coil pickup with 3-way 'character' switch (as best I can tell this changes it from single coil neck > humbucker > single coil bridge? - if anyone knows better, I'd love to know) EDIT: Thanks to an enquiry I've been reminded to mention that this bass weighs in at 9.5lbs. Currently strung with a set of D'Addario flatwounds but can change these for Roundwounds if preferred. All in all a bloody lovely, well built bass with tonnes of tone and attack. Gigged just once and has been well looked after, I'd give the condition a 9.9/10 - it still has the QC stickers on the electronics cavity and only faint marking on the lacquer when held in the right light. I know these aren't that easy to find these days and given the condition is a bit of a gem, so will look for [s]£325[/s] [b]£275[/b] delivered (o.v.n.o). Happy for buyer to collect from Tunbridge Wells, Kent. Probably one of the best basses you'll find for £275 or less. Any questions, please just get in touch Edited September 6, 2012 by chuck_stones

Davy Posted June 22, 2012 Posted June 22, 2012 Nice looking guitar, I'd be interested in this if my 50's Re-issue Precision sells. I'm going to add this to my trade list after seeing yours!
chuck_stones Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 Monday Bump. Cheers Davy Good luck with your sale!
chuck_stones Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 For the rest of this weekend. I'm offering this one at £250 delivered.
Mark_ii Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 These are fantastic instruments and will give bases that are triple the price a good run for their money, I own one already. A great buy for someone who likes the sound of a Musicman Stingray. This is a bargain for sure
chuck_stones Posted August 28, 2012 Author Posted August 28, 2012 Sadly the sale has fallen through, so this is back up for grabs!
chuck_stones Posted August 30, 2012 Author Posted August 30, 2012 For the next 3 days (until Sunday 2nd September at 00:00hrs) I'm offering this bass up for £225 not delivered (cash on delivery or collection). Personal delivery is possible to within 100 miles of Tunbridge Wells if the buyer covers my fuel costs. Alternatively it'll be around £20 for a courier, please contact me for a quote.
Adee Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 Absolute bargain ! until recently I had two a ATK300 & 400 models, they sound and feel like a £500+ bass very versatile in the tones too, great Ray tone as well as a more classic P £225 is a laughable price for buyer
Cosmo Valdemar Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 Best bargain on BC at the moment? Fantastic basses that absolutely nail the 'Ray vibe.
