Woodinblack Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Thats great - I was looking for an ATK805 the other day, there don't seem to be many of those around. Mind you there didn't seem to be many ATKs at all. I tried to buy one on gumtree once but the guy stopped talking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrikmarky Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 There's one on eBay through a online shop from Germany I think around £550.00.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Dunky Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Really nice bass. Those things sound wicked - how are the necks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebenezer Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 got the atk 300, and again, a very good bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrikmarky Posted July 18, 2015 Author Share Posted July 18, 2015 Necks quite "chunky"...which I like in a bass , not your typical ibanez ..its lighter than my USA sub and has so many more options with The active eq ....this is a keeper ..

Naetharu Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 Humm this looks really interesting. How does it compare to the Ibanez SR range in terms of tone and feel? I love my SR for its weight and sound but I find the neck is a bit too thin for my hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarshallBTB Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 My favourite ibanez bass, I really miss mine and this has made it worse! Absolute bargain, nice one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jecklin Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I have always liked these basses and really enjoyed the sound I was getting when I played one, BUT I just can't get past the aesthetics of the massive bridge, and it has put me off buying one in the past. The price one pays for being shallow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The tonal range is vast especially with the Jazz pup ,it's a chunkier neck compared to the sr I here the necks are thin ..its heavy than the sr I've never tried a sr so can't really advise on tonal comparison...

Yeah the bridge is my least favourite aspect of the bass and not sure it really needs it ..but I can live with it [/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
