silverfoxnik Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) *** Now SOLD *** Hi Folks I'm selling this Ibanez Musician Studio Fretless Bass on behalf of a friend of mine who's had it in his recording studio for many years but now wants to move it on. Was up for £675, but It's now offered for sale at £SOLD. As can be seen in the photos, the bass and the case are in good condition for their age, considering they're getting on for 40 years old. I think the bass is the lined fretless version of the Ibanez Musician ST924WN model, as can be seen here in this Reverb advert a few years ago: https://reverb.com/uk/item/1098372-ibanez-musician-studio-bass-st924wn-1979-walnut-mahogany But hopefully, @Bassassin might be able to offer some words of wisdom on this and put me right if I've got it wrong .. 😁 The bass has recently had a once over by a local guitar/bass tech, so all the electrics are working and it's properly set up. Strings are old though, so they will need changing by its new owner. Having said that, this bass really has that fretless 'mwahh' sound and it's got seriously loud pick ups! There's a great range of tones available from the active circuitry too.. For anyone seriously interested, the bass can be viewed and tested by prior appointment in the Littlehampton area of West Sussex. With regards to shipping, its definitely possible to send it via an insured courier service (at buyers expense), but it is a heavy bass as I'm sure anyone looking at this advert with a serious interest in the bass will know. I haven't weighed it, but it is heavy!! It's kind of like a Rolls Royce of a bass really - everything about it is quality and it's been built to last! Anyway, if you've any questions about the bass, please send me a PM and I'll go back to the owner to get you an answer, though that may take a few hours or so depending on his availability. Thanks for looking! 😊 Nik Edited July 8, 2020 by silverfoxnik Now SOLD 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Sir, aka @ricksterphil, Then 'tis time to scratch thine itch and test the will of the keeper of this fine lute of the low frequencies... To paraphrase the words of the great bard himself : "Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them... Especially if they happen to own an Ibanez Studio Bass purchased from the fine county of the West Sussex.." 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricksterphil Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 I'd reply in bard speak but we both might get rumbled as a couple of beardy folk who wear waistcoats, drink mulled wine and wish they had been born 400 years ago......forsooth!

briansbrew Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 I Had one of these and from memory there are 4 bolts behind the Quatro lock, the neck has threaded inserts which give it a more stable fit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
