Ibanez SR300 in Pearl White - £150
£150

Recommended Posts

Up for sale is my Ibanez Sound Gear SR-300 in pearl white (it has a kind of metallic sheen to it).

I purchased the bass new around five months ago when I was just starting out playing. It’s a fantastic instrument to play, with a thin fast neck, nice quality finish, light weight and well balanced on the strap.

The bass is made from Mahogany, with a five-piece maple/rosewood neck. The fingerboard is rosewood. It’s fitted with the standard Ibanez active pickups and three-band active EQ (Volume/Blend/Bass/Mid/Treble).

It has only ever been used in my flat and is in perfect condition. I’ve looked it over carefully and I cannot see any marks on it what-so-ever. When not being played it has always been stored in the Black Rat ABS hard-case show in the photos.

I’m selling the bass as I was recently fortunate enough to be able to order myself a custom-built Maruszczyk and to this one has simply become surplus to my needs. It makes more sense for me to move it on to a new home where it’ll get played more than once in a blue moon.

I’ve just re-strung it with a set of Warwick Round-Wound medium gauge stings and I’ve replaced the battery in order to make sure that the bass is in great shape ready for whoever takes it on. I’ve also gone over it and checked the relief on the neck and intonation so it’s ready to ‘plug-n-play’.

Here are some photos of the bass:
















I’d prefer collection / face-to-face meet-up as a courier is quite expensive. I’m based in Burnham-on-Crouch in Essex but I’m frequently in Colchester, Chelmsford and Harlow and would be more than willing to meet up or drop off the bass anywhere around those areas.

Also, it goes without saying that anyone who is interested in purchasing the bass (or even just fancies a noodle on it regardless) is more than welcome to pop around any time. No pressure or obligation to purchase what-so-ever.

I’ve tried to include some good photos but if anyone would like more information, better/different pictures, a quick chat on Skype or just about anything else along these lines please feel free to PM me. Also, if anyone wanted the hard-case to go with the bass I am willing to sell that for an additional £20 (i.e. £170 for the bass & hard-case)

All the best

James

Just a quick note to say that I am going to be away from tomorrow to Monday (16th-19th of October) so while I will do my utmost to respond to any PMs please don't be offended if you don't hear from me right away as I may not have internet connection all the time.

What's the string spacing on this out of interest?

Looks like a lovely bass at a great price :)

Hi bud, sorry for the slow responce there - I was away for a few days and only checked my PMs :) - the spacing at the bridge is 19mm so starndard for a 4-string. I picked it up at a time when I was messing around with learning a lot of slap and there was no issue there.

The famed 'narrow' strings on these comes from the nut end - the total nut width is 38mm.

The quality is certainly impressive - when I purchased this one I tried quite a lot of different basses side by side in the sub-£500 range and this was the one that lept out at me. Just nicely balanced, well finished and plays smoothly. It's a budget bass at the end of the day, but a very good one and will no doubt be great use to someone out there. Alas, I just need to clear some space here since my poor little one-bedroom flat is starting to look more like a practice studio than a living space...

Thank you for the kind words :)

The bass along with the ABS hard-case would be around £20 to ship according to Interparcel.com. I'm more than happy to send it that way.

I'm happy to add the case free of charge now, so £150 for collection or £170 for courier with the bass sent in the Black Rat ABS hard-case.
