SOLD: Ibanez SR1205 Premium 5-string £650 Spalding, South Lincolnshire

Ibanez SR1205 Premium 5-string.  £650 (no trades)

Feb 2014 Ibanez SR 1205 in good condition, owned by me since new. A few dings and scratches on the rear of body and lower horn, and some scuffs on top of the headstock but nothing heart-breaking - I've photographed them all as best I can. As you'll know after even a cursory glance at the internet, SR Premiums are fantastic. This is a really "alive", resonant bass. The stars of the show here are of course the Nordstrand Big Singles which produce a seriously meaty, crunchy, zingy and satisfying Jazz on steroids sound. But my newly acquired Dimension does power-Jazz single-coil sound (nearly) as well as the Nordies, plus it does "massive wall of humbucker goodness" too, so selling my little Ibby to free up space.  Neck is good, truss rod is good, tuners are good, controls are good - no mechanical or electrical issues here.

The factory case is in superb condition (though, like everyone who sells a Premium, I'm keeping the multi-tool!). Fitted with Dunlop dual function strap-locks (the bits that go on your strap NOT included)… original strap buttons included.  Has a set of D'Addario ProSteel 45-135 fitted: have lost their zing but undented and plenty useable! Collection preferred, or will drive up to 1 hour from PE11 postcode to deliver / meet. Happy to discuss sending by courier too at buyer's expense. Also selling other basses, cabs and pedals at present in case anything else takes your fancy.

• 34" scale
• 9lb / 4.08kg (my scales aren't great!)
• 2 x Nordstrand Big Single pickups
• 24 frets
• 16.5mm string spacing at bridge
• 45mm nut (Black TUSQ XL)
• 305mm neck radius
• Bolt-on 5-piece Wenge and Bubinga neck with KTS titanium rods
• Gotoh tuners
• Active 9v, with EQ on/off switch (NOT an active/passive switch - preamp needs a battery even if EQ off)
• Volume / Blend / Bass / Mid / Treble
  • Mid is switchable between 250 or 600Hz (toggle switch)
• Top-loading Monorail V bridge

Gorgeous.

Such a lot of bass for the money. I had a 1605, those Big Singles are great.

Now that's how you sell a bass! Wish I had the reddies for this...
