ryancowell25 Posted December 4, 2016 Posted December 4, 2016 (edited) For sale a 1982 Blazer P/J. Fantastic 80's bass, a great sound in P Bass. Moving on as it's just sitting in it's case at the moment. Looking for £300 couriered to your door. PM me with any questions Edited December 7, 2016 by ryancowell25
ryancowell25 Posted December 5, 2016 Author Posted December 5, 2016 Its been stripped and refinished - I think it looks great in a natural finish
Norm Posted December 5, 2016 Posted December 5, 2016 Slightly confused, is it a Blazer (title) or a Roadster (body of text)? It looks to have facing laminates of nice figured wood front & back like a sandwich or is it just an optical illusion & its a solid body? Ta, Norm.
FlatEric Posted December 6, 2016 Posted December 6, 2016 If it is of any help. . . . This would have been a Blazer, converted to RB650 Spec, by adding the J at the bridge. Both the Blazer and the 650, have the jack socket on the plate. This is mine: [url="http://flatericbassandguitar.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/ibanez-rb-650-hot-marquee-and-davy.html"]http://flatericbassandguitar.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/ibanez-rb-650-hot-marquee-and-davy.html[/url] I seems to be a neat conversion, so I would imagine it would have the same charcteristics of the 650, which it a truly great bass - one of my favourites and current rehearsing bass and back up. Luvvverlee to play, Big, Punchy sound and great tones. Would be a great bass to own and play. Cheers>
ryancowell25 Posted December 6, 2016 Author Posted December 6, 2016 Just realised the mistake - yes it is indeed blazer not Roadster - edited
Norm Posted December 6, 2016 Posted December 6, 2016 Thanks Flat Eric for your expert knowledge. Your white bass is sweet! Question still stands about the body construction?

Question still stands about the body construction? [/quote]Mm. Got me there. Looks like a veneer front and back? They did a dark see through stain - perhaps that on Basswood. Don't put off by that. I have a red Blazer - thunderous!!!
Norm Posted December 6, 2016 Posted December 6, 2016 Thanks again Flat Eric, the pick ups are beefy then on these basses? The body question was more aimed at the OP, Ryan?
ryancowell25 Posted December 7, 2016 Author Posted December 7, 2016 Sorry..... missed this Its an optical illusion
Norm Posted December 7, 2016 Posted December 7, 2016 Thanks Ryan, I thought they were solid but the shading on the pics made me ask.
